Who Actually Owns the Bed—Me or My Dog?

Every night, I start off with the intention of having my bed to myself. And every night, my dog has other plans. He waits until I’m just about to fall asleep, then launches a full-scale cuddle invasion. Suddenly, I’m clinging to the edge of the mattress while he’s sprawled out like he pays the rent. I’ve tried everything—firm boundaries, moving him to his own bed, even bribery with treats. But the puppy eyes win every time. I tell myself it’s fine, that I’m a strong, independent human who can reclaim her space. Then I wake up at 3 a.m. with a paw in my face and realize: I’m just a guest in his kingdom. Anyone else surrender their bed to their pet? Or is it just me living in this furry dictatorship? #PetLife #DogOwners #Relatable #Pets #Cats
