#2: They love your scent
If dogs can buy perfume, what would they pick?
Let’s see. Peanut butter-scented ones? Or…
The aroma of another dog’s butt?
Well, it could also be something that smells just like their dog parent, a.k.a you.
Research shows that canines can identify the scent of their humans among 4 other smells. And they also react positively to it.
So if they like being snuggled in your clothes, they must love you so much.
Your pile of dirty clothes might smell like heaven for them. Even though it smells like sweat and other odors to me and you.
But your pooch doesn’t mind it, as long as they feel safe snuggled in there.
So they’ll look for any shirts or pants lying on the bed. Or in your hamper. And choose to crash there instead.

#5: Your clothes are warm
You just have gathered your freshly cleaned clothes out from the dryer.
Then put them in a basket and leave to get something.
But when you come back, you can’t believe what’s in front of you.
Your socks and shirts are all on the floor…
Like someone has dug on it.
While your pooch is nestled happily inside the hamper.
Dryers use heat to make the water in clothes turn into vapor. And to speed up the process.
Specialists say they can get hot from 125°F to 135°F (51°C to 57°C).
And it’s compared to a cup of coffee that isn’t boiling but still warm with steam coming out of it.
So if your pooch tends to get cold easily, they might find your dried clothes comfy.
