Our two are outside. They sleep in their dogloos. Tonka, 30 lb. male sleeps on top of the timothy hay, which he totally smashed to his liking. Each day I pull out the hay for cleaning and fluff it, then he comes along and walks all over it to smash it down. Buzzy, 15 lb. female sleeps under the hay, pushing it around until she has found just the right spot and she is totally covered. During the summer months, Tonka likes to sleep under the hibiscus hedge but Buzzy prefers the security of the her dogloo.

: That was fun with the sleeping questions, so where (seriously,like
: someone here can be serious), are they sleeping at? Those with
: their torts indoors, are they sleeping in their hides? What kind
: are they prefering? Teddy loved to nestle in the Lizard Litter,
: before we made they hay house a big thing, probably go to more
: lizard litter (Kenaf plant type) soon again.
: Outside he would dig into the dirt with his head to the inside of the
: wall of the log. He'd never go into his dog igloo, got rid of it.

: So, favorite hides, or favorite sleeping areas?
: (My husband won't let me allow Teddy to sleep under the waterbed,
: can you believe that!? well not yet at least! lol) niki
