Can’t argue with the facts ….. 😉
A 2018 study from Canisius College in Buffalo, New York, found that women who sleep with their dogs report better sleep quality compared to those who sleep with a human partner. The research, which surveyed 962 adult women in the U.S., revealed that dogs were less disruptive to sleep patterns than men and provided a stronger sense of comfort and security.
Dogs tend to maintain more consistent sleep and wake cycles and are less likely to snore or move unpredictably during the night. Women in the study also reported feeling safer with a dog in bed, which can reduce nocturnal anxiety and improve overall restfulness. In contrast, human partners were more likely to disrupt sleep through movement, noise, or inconsistent schedules.
This suggests that canine co-sleeping may support more restorative sleep, especially for women sensitive to environmental disturbances or seeking emotional comfort at night.
