Hi all. Dutchess kept me up all night. Something is bothering her and I can’t figure out what it is. She’s insistent on sleeping on the edge of the bed, right next to me. I don’t want her on that side of me for a couple of reasons. So last night, after dealing with it for a while, I positioned myself to the very edge of the bed, put her on the floor and turned over, facing the window. She went to the door, turned around, ran very fast over to the bed, and jumped up and tried to push me to the center of the bed. She repeated this action three times. I wish I could speak dog. She is so determined to do this, and I can’t figure out why. This went on all night. She is quite determined.

I can’t imagine why she is so insistent on getting in that position. Is that where she used to sleep or something? What would happen if she slept there?
