The Original Coolaroo Elevated Pet Dog Bed, Indoor & Outdoor Use, Durable, Cooling, Brunswick Green, Small, 34.75" L x 22.75" W x 8" H

The Coolaroo bed was occupied by both my dogs (a standard poodle pup and a shih-tzu mix rescue) as soon as I put it together! They really seem to like it. I find it covered with toys at the end of each day. When the cold temps soon hit Wisconsin, I'll put a nice thick blanket on it and it will be a great nesting spot.

Originally purchased the Medium sized bed; based on given dimensions in specs. Once put together; our Malamute puppy fit on it curled up. Returned it and purchased the large bed. Much better! Be alerted that the size given in the specs. is OVERALL - including the metal frame. This takes away from the actual bed size by about 8 inches. Even tho' there are only 4 screws needed to assemble this bed; it's not as easy as it sounds. First, before actually putting all the frame pieces in place, partially pre-screw all the screws into the holes. I found they initially were somewhat tight. Once you assemble the framing and are actually using the screws; do NOT tighten them completely - maybe only half way. As you'll see, with the bed material stretched onto the frame; it's kind of difficult to maneuver the frame into it's flat shape. The little extra "give" by not fully tightening the screws until all are seated helps with the assembly. Finally, when all screws are in, then place on floor (if not already), be sure bed is flat, then tighten all the screws. Our dog loves it! Currently she weighs about 75 lbs. and even tho' the material stretches somewhat when she is on it; it bounces back to original shape when not in use. It is very light should you want to move it around. The bed material is double stitched and appears to be very sturdy. Before this type bed; our Mal had chewed on 2 other foam filled beds and 2 carpet remnants. So far so good with this one! I searched the internet for a raised bed; and Walmart's price was by far the best - especially with the free shipping when you pick it up in the store! Great bed; great deal!
