Dog Beds?

[SusieT]

Anyone recommend a good dog bed for a labrador sized dog? Hard to feel them online to see if they're thick enough!

Countrywide do a nice memory foam bed which my Pointer loves. Not hugely expensive and even better when they have a 50% off sale. Not indestructible as the bloody Whippet does have a habit of slitting them down the middle and getting in so I only buy beds in the sale

Ours have Orvis memory foam pie beds. We are lucky as there is a factory outlet store near us so we can get them a lot less than the shop price. The covers are really hard wearing and wash well. We have a ten month old Lab puppy and she hasn't managed to damage it yet. The beds come in lots of styles and sizes to fit

- small

Medium

And large

Although Dexter will sleep anywhere upside down! (Sorry couldn't resist)

Ooh that big bed looks more comfortable than my sofa! Off to Google them now.....

Make sure your sitting down when you see the price!

They do matching sofa covers although that just encourages beasts onto the sofa

I bought a lovely thick bed from Pets at Home, the dog loves lying on it.. apart from at night when she prefers to sleep on our bed...

I swear by Tuffies they are not cheap but mine is as good as new after nearly 4 years of wet, muddy dogs, all sleeping on top of each other.

I have the waterproof one. You can get covers for them.

We like the raised ones, we use HiK9 as they're not too expensive, when you have a Great Dane everything is huge and expensive, we've had it a year and very pleased with it, we'll buy another next year for outside with a mesh cover.

Orvis, but ensure you buy the extra padding as most reviews moan about the lack of padding. Or chance your arm in Home Sense or TK Maxx where mine is from: (2 full size springers plus a puppy on here)

Alternatively, the bed off the floor in my sig is a large Kuranda and fits two big springers comfortably. It's orthopaedic and you can get covers.

Darli....could you please PM me or post as to whereabouts the factory outlet store is please? I have a couple of oldies that live in the house and have Orvis memory foam beds that could do with an update, but currently finances prohibit replacing at full cost. Would be interested to see how much cheaper they were in the outlet. Many thanks.

There is an outlet store in Street, Somerset. We bought a new bed for our 4 springers on Thursday- should have been £249, and got it for £149 and a further 20% off (cos I was cheeky and asked if that was the best price).
All 4 of our dogs can just about get on it

Thank you!

My pointer and IWS love a bed I got from Over The Top - had it a long time and it has a hard life ! Still looks good and holds it shape.

 

[SusieT]

thanks for the replies/pm, like the orvis but eye watering prices!

I got his on a facebook group for £35, big dog loves it!

Pup has a cheapie PaH bed which lives in the coffee table (don't ask :rolleyes3: ) and will get a proper bed when he's stopped chewing everything, although I am tempted to get him a crate instead as my friend's dog is in one and he seems to like it.
