Our beautiful dog sleeps outside although he is in a very well protected laundry with a trampoline bed where he can be found sometimes during the day. He loves his bed. He also enjoys inside time on his blanket and knows no other rooms except the living area where his blanket is.

When he was a puppy & we first put him outside to sleep he would come up to the back door & cry. It was heartbreaking but after a few nights he realised it didn't get him anywhere & now he loves going down to bed...if we leave it too late he gets restless & asks to go down.

All dogs are different though, as are all owners. I would never have my dog in my bed or on my sofa, there are very clear rules when he is in the house but that is just me.
