Animal Instincts Plastic Pet Bed – Blue, 61cm

Animal Instincts Plastic Pet Bed – Blue, 61cm

A moulded plastic dog bed in the 61cm size, blue, with high sides and a dropped front so an older or shorter-legged dog steps in rather than climbs. Pedigree Wholesale mould ventilation holes into the base, which is the detail that stops the underside going damp beneath a blanket.

Rigid plastic is the sensible choice wherever a bed has to be washed often — a kennel, a utility room, a van, a dog that comes in wet twice a day. You line it with your own blanket or a fitted pad, so the bedding goes through the machine and the bed itself takes a scrubbing brush.

Performance & Benefits

• Robust, high-sided moulded plastic.
• Dropped front for easy access, which suits older and shorter-legged dogs.
• Ventilation holes moulded into the base.
• Washes down properly, which a fabric bed does not.
• Takes any blanket, cushion or fitted pad you already own.
• One of six sizes, from 53cm to 102cm, in blue, aubergine, mocha and dark grey.

Suitable For

• Medium dogs, at the 61cm size.
• Kennels, utility rooms and outbuildings where beds get washed down.
• Dogs that come in wet or muddy.
• Households that would rather launder the bedding than the bed.
• Not a soft bed in itself — a thin-coated or arthritic dog needs a proper mattress in it rather than a single blanket.

How to Use

• Stand the bed on a level floor, out of a draught.
• Line it with a blanket, cushion or fitted pad.
• Wash it out with warm soapy water and dry it before relining.
• Lift it occasionally so the floor underneath dries.
