Pets + Bed = No Sex?

A random topic came out Saturday night about how allowing your pets to sleep in bed with you generally takes a negative toll on your sex life with your partner. Do you agree?

Its tough when you're feeling frisky to stop what you're doing to put the dogs in their kennel. Talk about a mood killer. Its even worse when you hear them whining while you're mid-coitus!

One girl mentioned that they keep their dog in the room. I was horrified to hear this but I don't think its uncommon. Is it? I just know that our dogs would hop into bed and start licking our legs only making the whole experience very very very VERY creepy.

So - do you let your pets sleep in bed with you and your partner?
If yes,
- Has it affected your sex life?
- What do you do with your pet(s) when you're trying to get your freak on?
- Would you be okay letting your pet(s) stay in the room while you're boinking?
