*ROTFL* we were going to be strict... dog sleep in the kitchen, dog is not allowed on the furniture... we started it that way from when she was small, if we cuddled with her in our lap we sat on the floor to make certian she did not get bad habits...
she keppt getting up in the sofa with us every chance she could no matter she knew we were going to kick her down again.... Come June, after 7 months we gave up. she cuddles in our laps on the sofa, she sleeps on a blanket in the corner of the sofa or, in evenings when i am using the laptop uses me as a pillow (having a doghead and laptop in lap at once is awkward)
we also gave up on her sleeping in the kitchen about that time too. She never stopped waking during night, not because she needed to go but because she wanted company. we tried having the radio on, having a nightlight and all sorts of other things but it would not stop. after herkeeping us awake until midnight, waking us twice a night and deciding it was morning at 4am for two weeks we gave up. She now sleeps either in ehr bed in the corner of the bedroom or under our bed and she finally started sleeping properly...
I hope yours is slightly less determined and independent than ours *LOL*
Alex is adorable and should come visit ;) Min would muchly enjoy meeting him.
