Why They Bite
Getting bitten by your dog is not at all pleasant, but before you write your pet off as a bad dog, you should know that this behavior can actually mean playfulness and affection! When dogs play together, they can bite one another. This is not considered aggressive. This behavior can carry over to how they act towards you, but you should also look out for any signs of aggression or fear.

Sleeping Beside You
Have you noticed that your furry friend likes laying down beside you rather than in the dog bed? They got this behavior from their ancestors. Hunting in packs, their forebears slept together for warmth and security. Your dog just wants to be close to you and trusts you enough to do this. You should take it as a compliment.
