Me and my puppy listen to this every night before bed. I put her in the kennel and she would whine for a second until I played this and she would instantly stop crying and go to sleep. She’s now snoring. It’s our nightly routine now but there is no more crying when it’s bedtime. She loves it so much. Thank you for this.

A family pet, in your case a dog, shouldn't be stuck in a kennel at night ........ it should be sleeping beside you, because it's part of the family.

[@staciestrohbeen4636]

@@madmaxmcinnes4102 you don’t know me at all but this was a temporary potty training technique so that she didn’t get up at night and poop and piss all over my house. You will be happy to know that she’s in the bed now (alone with her fur brother). Not because you said that because that was the decision we made once we got potty trained and could hold her bladder more than two mores. My dogs are my life and if you did know me, you would know that. They are my family.

[@pauletteseverson3560]

Actually you had it right the first time. You should never let your dog sleep in the bed with you. Dogs do not think like human's do. In the wild the alpha dog or leader of the pack always eats firts, gets the choice parts of the kill, and is always positioned higher than the rest, literally. He shows his authority by physically positioning himself higher than the rest. By bringing your dog in your bed, you are telling him that he is equal in the hiarchey with you which should never be the case. In your house you need to be the alpha dog if you wish to gain his respect. You don't necessarily have to put him in a cage (although that's not bad) he just needs to sleep in an area below you. A nice soft pillow on the floor beside your bed would be perfect. Just never in the bed with you. I know you love your dog but dogs do not think like we do and they never will. That's one mistake we as human's make. Dogs need structure in their lives and without it they will become confused and once they no longer see you as the alpha in the pack it may create behavioral problems down the road. I know you love your dog but sleeping on a pillow on the floor beside your bed will not make your dog love you any less.

when i was very little my mom would tell me bedtime stories or sing to me, but after my father and step father died (one in September, one in April) she stopped reading or singing, and just went to sleep without saying goodnight. i understood but was still saddened, so i started reading Grimm’s fairytales to myself (mostly Rumpelstiltskin and Sweetheart Roland) but i lost the book in a move. Anyway, I’m 16 now and my mother recently beat cancer, but she still struggles. Now I tell her bedtime stories or sing lullabies, but its still nice to have someone tell me a story so I can fall asleep. I know this comment was very jumbled and poorly written, and that it will likely go unnoticed, but thank you, from the bottom of my heart. I hope you continue to post and help people like me fall asleep. ♥️
