Why do you go to your bed and snuggle with your blanket? If you can answer that you can answer this, for comfort, and it can depend on what she is sick with, if it's her stomach, she is probably eating grass and throwing it up b/c dogs cant digest grass, but she is most likely there because she wants to be alone and comfort, hope that helps :)

Dogs hide when they are sick in order to conceal their weakness from other animals. This behavior comes from their wild ancestors which, when ill or

injured, were vulnerable to attack from predators. If your dog is vomiting and refuses to eat, he needs to see a vet. He may have swallowed poison or have some other serious health problem.

It is a dog's instinct to hide pain because it would be a sign of weakness in the wild.
