Thermo Pet Throw

Thursday March 31st, 2011

Our take: Since I tested these, K&H has come out with a new model. Within two minutes of being plugged into my car's cigarette lighter, the old Heated Auto-RV Pet Bedwarmed up nicely and the cord reached easily into my back seat, but that's not hard to accomplish with a little Honda. I imagine that this newer model, which is more of a blanket, offers more efficiency. It operates on 12 volts and the cord doesn't get in the way of using a stick shift. You don't need an RV to enjoy this. It also has a standard plug for use at home, so it's quite versatile.

The dogs weigh in: Fred, of course, wandered around the back seat and refused to stay in one place on the bed. Ginger didn't want to use it, I think, but she tends to hop around the back seat to bark at dogs.

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
