I was looking for a bed to get my small pup off the ground (a six year old Pomeranian mutt with bad joints). When his bed was on the floor he would wake up stiff and sluggish and limping around. With this bed he bounces right up, ready to go.

The bed was easy to put together. I was a bit concerned it might be cheap and flimsy, or that the material would give me trouble but its perfect for a pup of about 25 pounds. Even the big doc (a 70 lb German Shepard/Golden Retriever mix) gets on it once when no one's looking. I've had it a few months and its a cinch to keep clean. Dog hair rolls right off it. Lay a towel down to keep stains to a minimum.

In fact, I'm thinking of buying another one for the big dog. I'll need a larger size though.

The dog (45# standard poodle) loves the bed. Drawback? like wrestling an alligator to get the sides to fit into the end pieces. Once done, it works very
well. Bed is light and easily moved, cleaned, and the dog uses it. All good

This is a very nice dog bed. I purchased it with the matching pad and would give it 5-stars for quality, construction, ease of assembly, and overall attractiveness--I really liked this bed.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get my dog to see it that way. I was patient, thinking perhaps she just needed time to get used to it, but to no avail. Finally on several occasions I tried placing her on it, praising her and marveling over what a great bed she had, but it was as if she'd stay just long enough to feel her penance was paid. I suppose if I'm honest with myself, I'd have to ask--why would my dog want her own bed when she can lay on mine or jump on the couch anytime she wants. I guess that's what I get for letting her live the pampered life.

One aim in purchasing an elevated bed was thinking I could place it over the air conditioning vents on the floor so that not only my dog would be cool, but we'd feel the benefit too--as normally she lays over the "cool vent" blocking the airflow. I didn't stop to consider that once the pad is attached, the cool air can only travel around, not through the bed. Also, while the medium sized bed seemed large enough for her 32 lb girth, if she didn't lay exactly in the middle, her head would rest on the edge, so maybe she didn't care for that either.

I really wanted this bed to work out, but couldn't justify the expense of a continually empty, $62-dollar dog bed--no matter how much I liked it myself. So if your dog is young and isn't allowed on your furniture, this bed may work out great. However if your dog has already established habits of lounging around the house where ever she pleases, it's probably a long-shot she'll make any pet bed her choice.
