    i honestly don’t get why people refuse to let their dogs be on furniture like sofas, like either stop spending so much money on furniture or start cleaning your dogs paws, depending on the reasoning behind not letting them up.

    like do they not want to cuddle with their pet? why have a pet then??

      Dogs just smell. And everything they touch smells. It’s not their paws.

      Couch’s are hard to clean.

      They might not know it, but people who let their dogs on the furniture have a smelly house.

      Our animals, dogs and cats, were free to sleep with us in Bed. The latter always did, the former only sometimes came on top to be pet.

    We got a dog a couple weeks ago and I told my partner I didn’t want to let the dog on our furniture. The first night she jumped right up on our bed and curled up on our feet. I immediately gave up on keeping her off the furniture. Too adorable.

    It’s always great when your dog visits other people’s homes who don’t know they’re signing up for fighting a losing battle about this.
