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 read a review by another customer who said that the fleece was pilling off--not so. THIS bed has no fleece on top. It is only synthetic suede. I had previously purchased the memory foam bed WITH the fleece on top, and the fleece did pill off. Plus, the dog likes to dig before he lays down, so he was actually peeling it off. As a result, I had dark brown fuzzies all over the room. But THIS bed hasn't been damaged by him yet, and I think it will stand up pretty well. He has outgrown the eating-his-bed-and-ripping-it-to-shreds phase, so I imagine we'll have it for a while. It looks great in our home, and the dog loves it. Actually, it's more comfortable than my own bed. As a sidenote, if you can't find a color you like, or you don't want to take the cover off once a week to wash it, a crib sheet will fit the large bed and act as a slipcover.
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.
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!
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.
The foam itself is great but the cover is very poor quality. After the first washing, the zipper started to separate from the material, and pulled away almost completely after the second washing. I washed it per instructions, on the gentle cycle. The zipper had been sewn too close to the edge of the material with no second seam for strength/support. I am very disappointed in the quality of the cover on this bed.
There's no fluffy, squishy egg crate foam in this thing! It's very dense and heavy and made to support an aching dogs joints. My one dog who would sleep on our tempurpedic bed during the day now sleeps on his own bed! That's how good the quality is. As for the sizing, my 100 pound akita fits, but if she's stretched out her feet might hang off. She sometimes prefers the cold tile for that anyway. Highly recommended!
I bought the 'MEDIUM memory foam dog bed with microfiber cover' #11193218. I don't see that on the website now, only large size) I have a small cat with arthritis and thought it would be good for her, but she only weighs six pounds and doesn't even dent the memory foam under the cover, so it is useless. For her, it's just like any other semi-rigid bed, not even soft.
I had high hopes for this dog bed based on the reviews I had read. My lab weighs 69lbs so I thought this would be a comfortable bed for her. However, it was much thinner than depicted and she didn't like it. I gave it a chance by removing her old bed so she had no choice, but she preferred laying on the hardwood floor to the bed. Therefore, I returned it.
Our dogs love this bed & it does truly seem to have therapeutic properties. Our senior dogs rise easily from it after napping or resting. Very firm & supportive. Will be ordering a 2nd one so both dogs can have one!
