raingirl capone is absolutley terrified of the baby gate b/c of the way it sounds and it has fallen a couple times. He will take off instantly.
Why not let him in your room and teach him to stay off the bed instead. That is pretty easy.
As for letting kids sleep with dogs... I always have when I was a kid. But capone sleeps with me. One thing though capone religiously goes to bed between 10:30- 11:30 ( thats even too late) if you see him up any later then there must be a party... Bsically my point is sometimes I find him in my step daughters bed and when were ready for bed he comes with us. I don't have a problem with it b/c my SD likes her door slightly opened so capone goes and opens it snuggles for a bit. I think it depends on the dog. If you have a dog that gets testy if moved around then I wouldnt. Capone is so easy going and allows the SD to do anything to him so I know hes capable of taking a lot and he only goes when she is sleeping so it works for me.
