Oh BOY,
when I tell this story you guys will really think I have rocks for  brains, 
 but my hubby ( aka sweet cheeks ) and I  owned a  miniature Dachshund for 
almost 17 years and she use to sleep with us,  for  16 out of the 17 years,  
but as she aged  she had accidents  and  couldn't get up on the bed easily 
so  being the excellent parents that we  are,  the first thing we did at age 
14 was  cut the legs off the bed  !  yes we did, hubby took the bed apart 
and we cut the legs off the bed,  which was great for her,  but damn it was a 
long way down to the mattress,  but we over came and adjusted ! Fergie 
learned real fast not to run under the  bed anymore, as there was NO MORE under 
the bed !  so when she turned  16   she was having a hard time jumping up on 
the bed with no legs,  sooooooooooo  we did away with the bed frame and we 
slept on the  floor on the mattress !   the Bassets of course had no problem 
  jumping on the " trampoline "  and our Dachshund who owned  her mommy  
and daddy ruled the roost and that was her bed  and her teeth barred and  jaws 
a snapping until the Bassets left the room.  Go to Meijers and you can  buy 
a water proof mattress cover . you might as well give up trying to teach a  
Basset that they can no longer do what they have spent years teaching YOU 
to  do  they don't like change !  hell neither do I !  but I adjust  with my 
VINO !!!!!!!!!!!!!
and sweet cheeks still sleeps in a short bed ( looks like midgets stay  
here  bwahahaha  I have a regular bed
