Final answer:
The correct verb form to fill in the blank is 'duerme' which means 'sleeps'
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct verb form to fill in the blank in the sentence 'Mi perro (blank) al lado de mi cama.' is duerme.
'Duerme' is the third-person singular form of the verb 'dormir', which means 'to sleep'. The subject 'Mi perro' is a singular noun, so we use the third-person singular form of the verb.
Example: 'Mi perro duerme mucho durante el día' which translates to 'My dog sleeps a lot during the day'.
