Why does my dog keep sleeping on me?

Whether you allow her to sleep in your bed or not, the simple reason she wants to join you is because she loves you. Sleeping as a pack also provides extra warmth and security. This instinct to be a part of a pack remains with dogs. Since you’re the leader of your dog’s pack, she wants to be near you.

Why does my dog lay on me and not my husband?

The reason your dog may prefer you as its sleeping buddy is because you smell better than your husband does. There aren’t many scents that can upset a dog, but some strong scents can discourage them. Alcohol, smoke, and sweat are the main scents that could make your dog choose you over your husband.

What does it mean when your dog lays on your chest?

It’s just like when a dog completely rolls over on their back to fully show their stomach. It’s a sign of comfort and trust. When your pup falls asleep on your chest, they are showing you that they fully trust you and feel comfortable being vulnerable with you.
