I agree they are huge and take up a lot of space. My parents have a large living room so in front of the fire place, they really don't take up too much space. Plus they have a large (50lbs) border collie/aussie mix that primarily lays in them. But they probably only need 1. Because the aussie puppy doesn't lay in them. Luckily none of our dogs tear up beds.
Missy has slept in her new bed in my office most of the day today. I turned on the oscillating tower fan and she enjoys that too. Although she moved to the floor a few minutes ago. I'll take it as a win though!
