FAQs
Is this bed suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the semi-waterproof and wipeable fabric makes it suitable for sheltered outdoor use, such as in a kennel or on a covered patio. However, it should not be left exposed to heavy rain or prolonged damp conditions.
How do I wash the dog bed?
The cover is fully zip-removable. Machine wash the cover only at 30°C or below. Do not bleach or tumble dry. Allow the cover to air dry completely before placing it back on the bed.
What makes this bed 'gnaw-resistant'?
The bed is constructed from tough 600 Denier Oxford fabric, specifically chosen for its durability and resistance to chewing, making it a better choice for dogs that tend to chew their bedding.
Is the entire bed machine washable?
No, only the zip-removable cover is machine washable. The inner cushion and filling should not be washed.
What does 'semi-waterproof' mean for this bed?
It means the fabric is treated to resist minor spills and light moisture, making it easy to wipe clean. It is not designed to be fully waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy water may still lead to absorption.
What size is the 'Large' bed?
This guide focuses on the product description provided. Please refer to the product's specific dimensions or packaging for exact measurements of the 'Large' size.
Can I use this bed for a puppy?
Yes, the gnaw-resistant material makes it a good option for puppies who are in their teething phase and prone to chewing.
Troubleshooting
Dog is still chewing the bed
While the fabric is gnaw-resistant, no bed is completely indestructible. Ensure the dog has appropriate chew toys. For persistent chewing, consider if this bed is suitable for your dog's specific chewing habits.
Spills are soaking through the fabric
The bed is semi-waterproof, designed to resist minor spills. For significant or prolonged liquid exposure, the fabric may not prevent saturation. Clean up spills immediately and ensure the bed is dried properly.
Cover is difficult to remove or re-zip
Ensure the bed filling is not bunched up. Zip the cover slowly and evenly. If there is resistance, check for any fabric caught in the zipper.
Fabric appears worn after washing
Ensure you are washing the cover at 30°C or below and avoiding bleach or high-heat drying, as per care instructions. Air drying is recommended.
