Large Memory Foam Dog Bed with Microfiber Cover

I have a 12 year old Golden/Lab mix and he's got joint issues. I've gone through numerous "Orthopedic" pet beds, which we all know, are somewhat expensive. They mainly have that "egg carton" type of foam, which is fine at first, however, after about a month or two the foam breaks down and doesn't hold it's shape any longer. I searched and searched, found a couple of places that carried "specialty Ortho" pet beds...again very expensive. Ordered it, and then find out that it is all on backorder for a couple of months (didn't bother telling me that). Now to my point and review... I was originally going to buy a memfoam topper for a regular bed and make one for my dog, but then I typed in "Pet Beds", and what do you know? Overstock carries it. So I ordered it, with the three day express mail. Well, I got it in two. Ordered it on Wed, was shipped on Thurs and I received it on Fri. I was very impressed with their shipping and how quickly it arrived. Luckily for me it left a warehouse in my city. When I got it, I opened it and it looked really small (it is vacuum packed and folded in half, so don't fret!), and I thought to myself, "Oh great, it was too good to be true." But once I got it out of the vacuum sealed bag and saw that it was folded, I was relieved. Anyhow, I put it on the ground and it went back to it's original shape and thickness...I suppose that's why they call it Memory Foam :-). Anyhow, my dog loves it and now he can get himself up a lot better than before. As for the "Durability" rating, I'll post again later to let you know how it holds up to a 75lb dog. I have a total of 3 big dogs, when I was allowing the bed to retake it's original form, my other two dogs laid on the bed and would not get off. I had to force them off the bed! So I will probably be purchasing two more pretty soon! Sorry for being long winded!

I purchased this product because my bed has a memory foam mattress that Luigi crawls up in and enjoys the heat that it holds. This bed allows him to have the same warmth & comfort. He now stays in his bed at night allowing me to get a good nights rest! The cover & bed are both very soft but I placed another foam pad underneath because it is not real thick for a heavy dog. It has a zipper on the bottom center for easy removal for washing. I like that it holds it shape keeping a neat appearance. The center doen't wear down like many other dog beds.

The memory foam beds are dense. The covers are nice looking and I like the way they zip on and off. The zipper runs across center of the bottom lengthwise. This make the cover much easier to remove and put back on compared to the old dog beds I had where they were like pillowcases. Durability remains to be seen. We took the advice of a previous reviewer and bought some baby crib fitted sheets to fit over the beds. Washing the sheets is a lot easier than the covers and should allow them to hold up much longer.

I have a 1-year-old Vizsla - a very active breed. She sleeps on this bed for hours at a time! It is so luxurious, I would sleep on it if it were big enough. :) We've had it for a couple of weeks now. I spilled some water on it when stooping down to pet my dog, and there must a waterproof liner in the cover, because the microfiber was soaked, but the foam was totally dry. The cover zips off: I've washed it once and it came through beautifully. This is a great product! If you have an older dog who needs a soft but supportive place to lie down, or if you just want to spoil your younger dog, this is a great product!
