You want the best seat in the house? Then throw the dog off it.
Or better still, buy him a large dog bed of his own.
Taking up space
Great Danes, St. Bernards, Mastiffs and Irish wolfhounds do take up space and it makes sense for anyone owning huge, heavy breeds such as these to ensure that the dog beds are large enough and strong enough to accommodate them. Every dog – whatever his size – needs room to stretch out and have a good night’s sleep.
The on-line search for a large dog bed is relatively easy.
There’s a wealth of websites offering all sorts of pet beds.
Some rather attractive rectangular and round pet beds can be found at www.bigdogbeds.com. These come with matching bolsters and pillows.
For the more enterprising dog owner there are pet sofa beds, dog lounges and dog day beds, some of which look like they have come straight from a Victorian drawing room. Big dogs wanting to extend their long limbs can have their own footrest.
Elderly and incontinent
Your gorgeous giant has outgrown his old bed? Or he likes to share with another family pet?
Then treat the pair of them to a gigantic six foot by four foot bed, some of which are strong enough to support up to three gigantic hounds.
But what if your old friend is infirm and incontinent? A waterproof dog bed is the answer.
Our pets suffer from all the same health problems we do, and why should an ageing hound be put to sleep because certain parts of his body don’t function as well as they used to?
After a lifetime of devotion, surely he deserves a little extra comfort in his latter years.
Good enough for humans
One company (www.mammothoutlet.co.uk) offer what they claim to be quality, award-winning design features in all of their large and extra large dog beds.
Mammoth – as the name suggests – specialise in the manufacture of large dog beds. They pride themselves not just on the quality but also on the popularity of their products.
Currently on offer are beds with easy-to-remove covers, lots of high memory upholstery fibre and orthopaedic foam strong enough to give a comfortable night’s sleep to dogs weighing in excess of 200 pounds.
Mammoth beds and dog couches sound good enough for humans. So if you’re stuck with an extra guest or two for Christmas, you know where to put them.
Mind you, they might have to share with the dog… but at least they can cosy up together in a nice large dog bed!
