Default Small dog question

Hi, my small dog, a boston terrier/italian greyhound cross, likes to sleep under the covers with us at night. Is this normal? does anyone else's small dogs do this? Just wondering thanks.

Dobies are always chilly at night too, but her size is pretty abtrusive. I got her some flannel jammies made. It's a loose fitting garment, just kind of drapes over her on the bed at night and she sleeps through without any inclination of crawling under the covers anymore. I LOVE it.

I have a Boston terrier and I find he gets cold very easily. I don't let him sleep on the bed though because he is a stinky little guy. I find him wrapped up under his blankets when I wake him up in the morning. These dogs are well known for their flatulence problem and when you put a Boston terrier and a Boxer together it can get quite stinky. The dogs have their own room because of that

hahaha, Stan! We used to have a BT named Spike. He snored so loudly that he had his own room too! Stink was a whole other matter with that dog.... sometimes he'd fart, look back, look at US with disgust, and leave the room himself! Man, I miss that dog...... he had the neatest personality; all the Bostons do.

Both my dalmatians sleep under the covers. One whines and freaks out if she isn't under them when everyone gets into bed. We actually ended up buying a king bed so everyone could be comfortable!

I have a Italian Greyhound He does it when we let him in the room. I believe it is quite common for dogs to do.
