Story summary
- University of Toronto researchers found sharing a bed with a dog does not affect sleep duration or quality.
- They monitored 25 volunteers and 38 huskies or malamutes with wrist and collar devices for four weeks.
- Half of participants, especially those with multiple dogs, reported poorer sleep, though devices showed no objective decline.
- Authors noted the small, gender-imbalanced sample and limited breed range, and published the study in PLOS One.
