# Ryu's Sleep Trials So, Brandon brings up a good point about Ryu's inability to sleep on *his* bed. Here, we take a look at the evidence: Between the couch and the side table: From Ryu Propping his head up on various stuffed toys: From Ryu From Ryu Cuddling with Daddy's boots Eating is so tiring!

Here, we take a look at the evidence: Between the couch and the side table: From Ryu Propping his head up on various stuffed toys: From Ryu From Ryu Cuddling with Daddy's boots Eating is so tiring! From Ryu Maybe this could be considered an elevated bed? From Ryu UNDER a bed? From Ryu How about on some "bedding"? From Ryu Or a tile floor... From Ryu Buried under his crate bed... From Pick-me-ups Using Mom as a bed... Sleeping on the job... From Ryu in Office Somewhat near his bed! From Ryu and Roxy We'll start with a few paws... From Ryu and Roxy And..... drumroll please...... YOU CAUGHT ME! From Pick-me-ups When he finally figures out how to sleep ON the bed........ Roxy Steals It! From Ryu and Roxy The End! ## KFontaine04 · 2009-03-25T16:08:44.000Z THanks Pam, that made me laugh. ## brandon_w (admin) · 2009-03-25T16:11:30.000Z Too funny. He's such a good looking boy. I love the shot of him buried under his crate bedding. Did he get into that spot when the door was open or closed to the crate? Nemo loves to sleep under the bed in the summer, but rarely does so in the winter. He can hardly sneak under there, but that doesn't seem to bother him. ## Ryu · 2009-03-25T16:15:23.000Z The crate door was open. I couldn't find him ANYWHERE and was starting to freak out a bit (checking the yard, garage, etc) and then saw him in his crate. Such a silly goof. And thanks! I think he's pretty darn handsome too :) ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2009-03-25T16:17:08.000Z You missed my favorite pic - the one where he's sleeping with Tim's boots. Great narrative! ## brandon_w (admin) · 2009-03-25T16:18:09.000Z Isn't there also a picture of Ryu with his head in his food bowl, dead to the world, as a puppy? ## Ryu · 2009-03-25T16:19:14.000Z haha.. looks like I'll need to add some more!! *Edited: Added the two requested pics! ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2009-03-25T16:23:06.000Z these are awesome!! so cute! ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2009-03-25T16:40:44.000Z Thanks! No sleeping thread is complete without those pics! ## Ryu · 2009-03-25T16:44:13.000Z Ryu is such a sleepy guy too so I have tons and tons of them lol ## sunyata · 2009-03-25T17:00:05.000Z Awww! That would make a VERY cute children's book. :) ## ljowen123 (moderator) · 2009-03-25T17:11:59.000Z Where does Ryu sleep... Sometimes Ryu is so sleepy, he can't find his bed. Cany you find Ryu? Insert pic here. ## Ryu · 2009-03-25T17:17:35.000Z LOL Love it. :) ## CrimsonO2 · 2009-03-25T17:17:37.000Z LOL, Well based on all these pics, he refuses to be a model for advertising your dog bed line:) B&G Dog Bed: "Your dog will love it! Just look at mine..." Jesse ## KFontaine04 · 2009-03-25T17:25:32.000Z LOL Jesse! ## Ryu · 2009-03-25T17:35:06.000Z LOL that was below the belt! ## Sangmort (moderator) · 2009-03-25T17:37:41.000Z lmao! ~ ## CrimsonO2 · 2009-03-25T18:13:29.000Z What? :) It's not like I won't still get one of those B&G beds for my Ichi (little bugger has eaten through his 4th crate bed). Something about the foam inside that gets him all hot and bothered to chew and dig, and chew and dig till he gets it. BTW Pam, I have that very same blanket on my living room couch too (the pic of you passed out and Ryu using you as a bed). Jesse ## Ryu · 2009-03-25T18:16:03.000Z haha It's OK Jesse :) Ryu treats his bed more as a toy than a sleeping spot. You can probably see all the teeth marks that bed has suffered :) ## Ryu · 2009-03-25T18:16:37.000Z Haha. We love our couch blankets :) ## lingmorton · 2009-03-25T21:54:34.000Z great pics, they r so funny! i always catch my lil ones doing that too i love the one whereby "eating is so tiring" lol, i saw koda passed out next to his water bowl with 1 of his big floppy ears soaked in it ## Darwin67 · 2009-03-25T22:09:58.000Z LOL!! That's a great story..I especially like the "Caught me!"!! You ought to think about your own line of kids books :) ## sujewel · 2009-03-25T22:25:08.000Z Awesome pix!!! My fave is def the crate one. ## TheWalrus · 2009-03-25T23:15:24.000Z Excellent pics! I was laughing scrolling through them and had to show the wife :P ## cmmookie · 2009-03-26T02:10:04.000Z LOL. Ryu is a goof. Great narration! ## starry · 2009-03-26T04:15:35.000Z narcoleptic falling asleep in his food, he is adorable tell me how old is he now? I feel like toki never sleeps, even when I sleep in his room with him he is always doing something and definitely never lets me get a pic in ## Ryu · 2009-03-26T09:40:59.000Z haha thanks everyone! He makes us laugh every single day so I thought I'd give you a taste of his silliness :) Cherie: He's 1 year and 5 months old now. It was so emotional looking at his baby pictures but he's grown into such a wonderful man that we certainly can't complain! :) Toki will calm down - Ryu didn't calm down until about 8-9 months and 3 days of daycare each week! ## Leonberger (admin) · 2009-03-26T11:18:19.000Z Ryu's great! The one of him sleeping on the food bowl is my favourite. ## CrimsonO2 · 2009-03-26T11:29:14.000Z We should start an "asleep at the dining table" thread. Because I think Casey has one of Bella doing that as a pup if I'm not mistaken. Sadly...mine doesn't fall asleep anywhere unless it's in the car or in his crate. Which is good I guess, but less "awww" moments. Jesse ## SophieMonster · 2009-03-26T17:20:58.000Z hehe. Love your pics. what a silly shiba. they get so excited and then so tired they just pass out wherever they happen to be standing. :-) --- **Navigate:** [Forum home](https://nihonken.org/community/?format=md) · [Sitemap](https://nihonken.org/community/sitemap.xml)
