Like almost every dog on this planet - Apollo loves to sleep. Morning, afternoon, night... he enjoys dozing off and catching those z's. Ever since I gave in and started letting him sleep in my bed (less than 2 months after he came home with me 10 years ago exactly to this date) he has had quite an impact. Let me explain...
For one, he's a hog. He enjoys taking up the prime spots on the bed. You know what I means - right in the middle (especially after you get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom). But the agreement still holds to this day: he gets to sleep in my bed, I get to push him around without compromise. So when I find him occupying a spot that I'd rather be in, he will be shoved aside (much to his chagrin).
He's very warm. This means he's a fantastic heat-generator in the winter and on cold nights under the covers. It also means he's a bit annoying in the summertime when he sidles up next to you.
Without knowing it, he's quite the bad influence and can make anyone late for work by inadvertently convincing you to accidentally fall asleep just by snuggling with him. It's very hard to resist and takes incredibly strong will power to get out of bed while watching him sleep...
Trust me, I know.
