Bed preferences/options

Teddy has 3 beds he likes, one is a platform that is about 4 inches off the floor with a mesh like cover the second is a crate pad that sits beside my recliner.and his favorite is his dog sized cooling mattress from chewy. He doesn't like the plushy style at all.

He had one of those, said it was machine washable, my wife washed it and it got caught and tore the seam losing lots of fiber filling. Well next thing she tells me is the washer is broke. Called the service tech and they said they were behind so it would be 1 month before they could come over. So at her prompting I became the service man. I found more filling inside the washer than was in the bed and the pump was full of the filling.
I will only buy him beds that have the removable cover from now on. I learned my lesson

 

I got him the large because He likes to spread out sometimes. During the night he moves from the mattress to the crate pad to laying on me in the recliner. When it was really hot he also sleeps on the kitchen floor.

 

I have a huge Kirkland dog bed Finnie and Blueberry love but it’s so big ( round and at least 3 feet across) and can’t be washed...it’s days are numbered lol.
Blueberry has Finnie’s bolster bed in her pen ( also not washable ) and Piper is not a fan of beds other than my own lol.
I do have a faux sheepskin bed that’s not super thick so I can wash it but they don’t care for it much. Too many beds!

 

We have a big variety also. The one that gets the most use by all three looks like what Ann linked to. It has bolsters on 3 sides and a removable cover. Then we have thick mats that are washable rectangles, there is no foam or filling in them. They prefer those in the summer or just for a change. Faith's favorite spot is "her" corner of the couch! I did splurge on plush fuzzy bed that was advertised on the Cricket Chronicles, and none of the dogs is interested!!!

 

Leftover three inch memory foam cut to a rectangle from an old mattress topper, wrapped in a cheapie couch throw from Walmart or Biglots. Easy to throw in washer, no zippers to mess with. If my "diggers" ruin the throw oh well! I even found a cute one for like 5.00 with paws and fire hydrants and bones on it. They aren't used at all till winter. Koko never sleeps on a dog bed.
