My Dog Gives Me Turndown Service Every Night

This picture is the start of my bedtime routine every night. I swear he can tell time. Every night at 9 p.m. my dog Patton disappears from the living room and gets in my bed.
First he just pushes the blankets back a little bit, it almost looks like a nest. By 9:15 he has the sheets and blankets pulled down like they do at a hotel. If I don't go in the room by that time he comes back to the living room and thumps the couch with his tail and runs back to the bed.
It's like he's telling me it's time for bed. As a kid my parents gave me a bedtime. Now as an adult I feel like my dog is giving me a bedtime. It's really cute.
When I get into bed he puts his head on the pillow next to mine and falls asleep. I think it's one of the cutest things he does. It's sweet to go to bed with a little smile because he does that.
Now I'm so used to it that if I wake up during the night and he's not there I don't sleep as well. You might laugh about it, but sometimes he acts like a little person.
Do any of you sleep with your pets? And what kind of pets are they?

Aw that is so sweet now.
Look at that lovely clever doggo
I don't have pets, we are not allowed them here, sad.
But in years past, yes we had dogs and I did not mind them at the end of the bed.

I rescued him from a shelter and he's turned out to be such a good dog. He's so loyal and affectionate. I just couldn't get over how he goes right at 9p.m.

@RebeccasFarm He is very loyal and he seems to know when I need him. If I cry he's right there cuddled next to me and he's so goofy and cute that he does something everyday to make me smile

@WomanWarrior1969 I can see that he is quite a huge one. How old is it?

I have three cats, but only one sleeps with me. The other two are content to use other parts of the house. However, our cat's favorite thing, is getting to be a wedge between my husband and me.

My boyfriend and I have to fight to keep our own sides of the bed and keep enough blankets on or the dog will think the bed belongs to him..lol

He's so adorable and he has so many cute little quirks. I don't know how I would get through some days without him.

He's a Mountain Curr which is a type of hound. I love his brindle stripes and white socks.
