Heated dog beds

  • Share on Facebook

Lean breeds such as greyhounds and whippets, toy breeds, and arthritic or old dogs enjoy warmth. They don't just enjoy it, in winter they become veritable heat-seeking doggie missiles. Heated dog beds can be just the ticket for a warm ride. It's best to stay away from heated beds for which you cannot adjust the temperature because you don't want your dog using something that gets over his body temperature, which is generally around 100 to 102°F.

And let's just say you have a sore spot....there's no reason you and your dog can't snuggle together on these large, thick heating pads, although you probably don't want the general public to get a gander of that through the front window.

  • Custom Dog Bed from theDogLife

    I was looking everywhere for a bed that would fit directly into my dogs crate or would be close but after months of looking I almost gave up. Finally I found a company called theDogLife (www.thedoglife.ca) that made what they were calling "custom dog beds". I sent an email and within a few minutes I had a reply from the company saying they will make ANY size I wanted. I got a quote on a complete custom bed, 24.5" x 32" x 2" made of their microfiber material (like my couch) and my bed was shipped out in under a week! All said and done, my pup and I couldn't be happier! Check them out if you need a dog bed and the usual stores just aren't cutting it. thedoglife.ca Cheers, James
