My two yorkies used to, but they don't shed. When DS was born, we stopped since he ends up in bed with me so often. Our golden retriever mix sleeps in his own bed - too much shedding!

We have a cat and she sleeps on the bed. I just try to control fur at the source and brush her often! She used to shed a lot in summer but not so much lately.
edit: I usually wash sheets every 2 weeks.

We put an extra sheet over the duvet & change that more often.

I have two fluffy cats who sleep on the foot of the bed on the duvet. I change my sheets weekly, but I must admit I haven't washed the duvet cover in some time.

Yes, and it's an ongoing battle. We have a Pointer whose favorite thing is to basically sleep right on top of us. It's worse in the fall, too, when mud can get into the crevices of her paws outside and end up on the bed We change the sheets once a week or so, and we usually have a blanket over the duvet. I am thinking we need to put a sheet on it instead of the blanket, though, because washing the blanket is a huge pain!

I wash the bed monthly, there's just no way I can get it done more frequently. We keep a blanket over the foot of the bed where the dog sleeps and wash that weekly-ish. We do brush the cats and dog often (the Furminator is the best tool ever for hair removal!), and give the dog a bath monthly. I also run the vacuum with the upholstery attachment over the top quilt weekly which helps.

We have a little chihuahua. She sleeps with us, but under the covers. I wash the sheets 1x a week. The duvet cover probably 1x a month. Should be more often, but it's too much work these days. She doesn't shed much though, is indoors only, and gets a bath about every week or two.

our two pugs sleep with us. we wash the sheets and blanket once a week. there's still a lot of fur because pugs shed like crazy, but considering the general state of our apartment, it's clear that we have surrendered.

My dog sleeps with me when I'm home alone. Other than that he lays in the bed with us in the mornings but sleeps in his own crate. I still wash my sheets every Wednesday!

Our dog used to sleep in our bed before the boys arrived, but he never would stay the whole night. He's a finicky sleeper, if you touch him the wrong way, he gets angry and jumps off the bed. That said, our rule was he was only allowed on the duvet, not under the covers, to minimize shedding (he's a black Lab).

He loves to sleep on our bed during the day when we're gone, but I nixed that when he decided that sleeping on the duvet wasn't good enough and would rake it down to get nestled in under the sheets. So now he's locked out of our room when we're gone. I don't like sleeping in a hairy bed!

We change sheets once a week.

@Happygal: lol, I just mean to strip the bed and wash the sheets, duvet cover, pillowcases, sometimes duvet, etc. In between I'll just wash the dog blanket at the foot of the bed and vacuum the top quilt. My husband is asthmatic, so they aren't allowed up by our heads or on the pillows, or under the sheets.

Our bedroom door is always shut to keep the cats out and our dog sleeps on his own bed in our bedroom. I hate locking them out but they're very bad bed mates.

We have a Perkinese/Poodle mix and she sleeps with us, however she sleeps on top of her own blanket and doesn't shed. I wash the sheets weekly (I love fresh sheets so sometimes it's 2x a week), blankets weekly, but sadly the comforter has to be drycleaned so it's been neglected.

@grizz: @pinkcupcake: Yorkie love!!!!! Our two Yorkies sleep in the bed with us. On the pillow. I change the sheets every week to two weeks if I forget. Totally off topic- but are the Yorkies good with your baby?
