At least once a week from now on and as long as she’s still with us, our golden retriever Sheba is going to share one thing she does to live life to the fullest. At times when I’m watching her doing something fun, I get this feeling that she knows that her days in this world are winding down, and she is determined to make the most of them. It never fails to bring a smile to my face!
Tip #3: For a good night’s sleep, be sure to get the best spot on the bed (hint: it helps to get there first)!
Side tip: It’s nice to save a good spot for your sissie as well, especially when it’s her birthday week.
If you’ve missed Sheba’s previous tips, follow the links below to see them:
Have a great holiday weekend, everyone! Sheba is on a roll, and she’ll be back with another fun tip on Sunday!
Love the picture of Sheba and Cricket snuggling. 🙂
Sheba, we agree! Get to the bed first and find the most comfortable position!
Thank you so much for coming to my birthday celebration! – Merlin
True wisdom, Sheba.
I wish we could let Dakota on the bed but we can’t. It’s baby gated because of Cody’s stuff being back there.
You probably sleep better than I do, so that’s something positive. 🙂
Now, that’s a most excellent tip, Sheba. We bet your humans make sure you get the best spot too.
Mr. N adds that you can trick other dogs into giving up the best spot if necessary!
That’s right, Mr. N – pretending you smell something is always a good distraction!
I’m imagining the contorted position the humans would have to sleep in.
You’ve got that right, and you can also imagine the aches and pains these aging humans sometimes wake up with! 🙂
It doesn’t look like there’s much room for people in the bed! I’m glad she saved Cricket a place during her birthday week–very sweet!
We’re lucky if we can find a spot – LOL! Sheba is the one that will always move for me though….Cricket and Luke both sometimes need a little push! 🙂
Oh yes get the best part of he bed!!so cozy
Great tips Sheba. Thanks cause I’m 9

Aw, that IS a great tip. Both pups look super comfy on the bed. Makes you want to go up there with them 🙂
It’s especially hard for me to get up in the morning when they’re all snoozing so comfortably next to me! 🙂
Pierre can take up so much room for a little dog in our bed! If Bentley slept with us, we’d need a bigger bed. BOL!
I know what you mean. There are times Cricket can take up just as much room as Sheba does, and she’s 1/3 of her size! 🙂
Sleep in so important, and the best comfy spot is a major help. You look so happy, Sheba!
Aw, Sheba, you’re so sweet! Callie was the same way – she always made room for her Shadow. On the bed or anywhere else.
LOL that is an excellent tip Sheba. Storm agrees only she would not make a spot for anyone else.
