This is funny. Cleverly true.

But I hope whoever designed it goes back and puts the apostrophe in to show the dog's. . .er, dogs' ??? possession of the space.

i guess if they were selling these, there would need to be two versions of the possessive noun. Apostrophe in front of the s for one dog and after the s for more than one. Or maybe they could include a detachable apostrophe that could be moved depending on the number of dogs in residence.

Doxies!! I knew a doxie who would stretch out her entire length, even stretching her short little legs, front and back. All the better to take as much space as possible. Always sideways. Always the width of the bed. She was not even supposed to be sleeping in the bed, but would wait until the opportunity was right and would jump up, on those short little legs and take what she presumed to be her rightful place.
