FAQs
What makes the donut shape beneficial for dogs?
The raised rim of the donut shape creates a den-like environment, providing a sense of security and comfort, which can be particularly calming for anxious or nervous dogs.
Can the entire bed be machine washed?
Typically, the outer cover can be machine washed on a gentle cycle, but the internal filling is not removable. Always refer to the specific care instructions on the product label for the most accurate guidance.
Is this bed suitable for large dogs?
This specific model is designed for medium-sized dogs. Scruffs may offer larger sizes in the Ellen collection, which would be more appropriate for larger breeds.
What is the filling made of?
The bed is filled with 100% recycled PET fibre, which provides excellent support and cushioning while being an eco-friendly choice.
How do I clean the faux fur and tweed material?
For routine cleaning, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, the cover is often machine washable on a gentle setting, but always check the care label.
Will the non-slip base work on all surfaces?
The non-slip base is designed to provide stability on most common indoor surfaces. However, its effectiveness can depend on the specific flooring material and its condition. Ensure the base and the floor are clean and dry for optimal grip.
Troubleshooting
Bed loses shape after unpacking
Gently shake and fluff the bed. Allow it 24-48 hours to naturally regain its full shape and loft.
Dog is hesitant to use the bed
Encourage your dog with treats or favorite toys. Place a familiar blanket or item with their scent on the bed.
Minor stains or odors on the surface
Spot clean immediately with a mild detergent and water. Ensure the area is thoroughly dried. For persistent odors, baking soda can be lightly sprinkled, left for a few hours, then vacuumed off.
Bed slips on smooth floors
Ensure the non-slip base is clean and dry. If slippage persists, consider placing a rug or mat underneath the bed.
