There are several reasons why dogs are willing to be held to sleep: Sense of security: Like humans, dogs also need a sense of security. Being held by their owner to sleep makes them feel safe and comfortable because it makes them feel protected. This sense of security allows dogs to relax and enter a deep sleep state. Social needs: Dogs are social animals and they like to interact with people or other dogs. Being held to sleep allows them to feel that they are in a close social environment and the emotional connection with their owners will be strengthened.
Comfort: Like humans, dogs also need a comfortable sleeping environment. Being held while sleeping allows dogs to feel the warmth and body temperature of their owners, which can make them feel more comfortable and relaxed. It should be noted that not all dogs like to be held to sleep, and some dogs may feel uncomfortable or restricted. This needs to be judged according to the dog's personality and preferences. At the same time, for some large dog breeds, due to their large size, they may feel pressure or risk restricting breathing, so it is not recommended to hold them to sleep for a long time.
