The risks of letting your dog sleep in bed with you are;
 - Say hello to parasites
If
 your dog is already infected with a parasite like roundworm, the 
parasite's eggs are on his coat. When he snuggles up next to you, those 
eggs could shed off into your sheets and nestle into your skin.
- You could get scratched
It
 doesn't matter if your dog doesn't actually scratch you. Just sleeping 
next to or being licked by your dog could be enough to pass the disease.
 Again, make sure your dog is healthy in the first place. Then let her 
sleep in her own bed or space in the house.
- Aggressive Behavior
The bed can become the dog’s territory, and anyone who’s unwanted—in his eyes—won’t be welcome in his domain.
- Your pet could pass staph infections
Serious
 staph infections like MRSA can be passed from animals to humans. MRSA 
is a bacteria that is resistant to many antibiotics, making it difficult
 to treat. Dogs and cats can carry this bacteria in their mouths and 
saliva.
- Chocolate on your pillow
Dogs
 are natural scavengers and aren't afraid of playing with or eating 
their own poop. Your pet probably has some on her paws or fur right now,
 so when she sleeps in your bed, it could also make you sick.
