We got our Murry when he was 7 weeks old from an SPO (he's 10 1/2 weeks now). He slept with us the first night we got him and he slept on the pillow. It is still his favorite place to sleep. He likes it when I sleep on my tummy so he can tuck his bottom under the curve of my chin, and if I'm on my back he'll either sleep in the crook of my arm or on the pillow above my shoulder. I also have a baby blanket for him that is his special blanket, it goes everywhere with him, it goes in his bag when we're out and about, and if it's sleepy time and he's wide awake we'll wrap him in it and it helps him to calm down. He has pretty much learned that being wrapped in his blankie means it's time for bed and he conks out.

I don't know what it is about microbead pillows but both Murry and my friends chi Ezma love them. Ezma stole one of her microbead pillows off the bed and kept putting it on the floor. My friend finally gave up on getting it back after a while. I noticed that Murry really liked to lay on it too and since I had one I let him have it for a bed. He doesn't chew on it even though he likes to chew. He'll take his chew toy and lay on the pillow to play with it. It's weird, they just like them for some reason.

If you are a heavy sleeper I wouldn't recommend sleeping with him until he's bigger (depending on how big he is now) but if not I say go for it. I had a nightmare that I rolled over on him the first night but since then I haven't had a problem.

I don't know if I suggested it to you or someone else but a bell is great for a little dog too. Helps you keep track of where they are.
