    It's your choice, no one is going to say "No, you can't do that." but instead, will give opinoins about whether or not it's healthy for your puppy and you. I'd say maybe, as long as your puppy is well trained and housetrained. Until that happens, I would not suggest having a peeing, not obedient puppy on your bed.

    But keep in mind, dogs sleeping on beds have tons of negatives, for example, it gives the puppy a sense of alpha-ness, makes him think that he's the leader, because he's "taller" than you, and a bit of aggressiveness too, when he's guarding the bed and such. Also, it may be unhealthy for you too, because dogs are pretty dirty, and if you're not bathing him everyday, he's gonna get that dirt on your bed. Also, if you're allergic to pollen or something, your dog may bring that in with you, and cause an allergic reaction. This is a bit similar to asthma too. Plus... If you already have problems thinking, I wouldn't get a fluffy, kicking, scratching, little puppy to sleep with. They might disrupt your sleep, and be a bit annoying. If you decide to let your dog on your bed, but then decide not to, this will be extremely hard to correct, so you have to stick wth your descican.

    But the positives.... well, I guess it's nice to have a dog on your bed with you at night, plus, it gives them more attention, well.. that's it.

    Good luck!

    Divjot, as long as the room is free of items that your lab can get at easily. I don't see a problem, I would be a real *** and a hypocrite, if I said no.

    Of course the puppy can sleep in your room, as long as it's ok with your parents.

    Sure as long as you are willing to get up every few hours and take outside to pee/poop. I would suggest you crate train the puppy now so your bed is not peed on during the night.

    I think he'd prefer that. Yes of course.

    Yes of course, just put away things that s/he might get into throughout the night while your asleep

    Yes it can. But you will have pee & poop to clean up & if you don't put your things up, the pup will chew them to pieces. Put everything up & out of reach that you don't want destroyed.

    That is something you need to ask your parents. It's not our place to give you permission.
