Elmer and Button don't really like to get in our bed. We tried it at first, when we just had Elmer, but he hogged the whole bed. Imaging that! A hoggy Basset! When Button came on the scene, they liked to cuddle together in a large crate. Sometimes Elmee will get in bed with me while I'm reading, but it's not long before he wants "down". Speaking of hair, I just vacuumed and I swear I could make a dog from a kit with all the dog hair that was accumulated in just a couple of days. I'm not sure what to do about this "extra dog" that appears in our living room every few days, but it's sure working the heck out of me (and the vac!) :lol:
