Sleeping With Your Dog Dangerous But Less Dangerous Than Sleeping With Your Husband or Wife.

It turns out that sleeping in the same bed with your dog, cat or other pet might be dangerous.  So says a new study from the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases.  Given our love for Marty and Cooper, a reader pointed me to this article in Time Magazine describing these dangers of sleeping with your pet. 
What are the dangers of sleeping in the same bed with your pet?

The article does admit that the risk is low, considering the number of people that sleep with their pets.  In fact, I believe the risk of contracting a disease from sleeping in the same bed as your dog is probably lower than it is from sleeping in the same bed with your husband or wife.
