Orthopedic Dog Bed XL Dr. Fosters...

Fluffypants · 06-21-2011, 07:17 PM

I saw this bed and thought it was a good deal. It's big enough for my Niko and looks like it would be very comfortable for him. I find many of the dog beds tend to sag after a couple of months or less.... This one is only $133 (XL) with free shipping and got excellent reviews. The colors are not what I would have chosen, but they have the exact same bed for $199 with better colors... I just didn't think $70 more was worth better colors.

There is also another that is the Comfort Spring which I was debating on... for like $149... but that one didn't have any reviews and I wasn't sure how the springs would hold up.

Any thoughts.... or just maybe passing along if anyone is looking for a reasonably priced ortho bed. It's not cheap cheap... but cheaper than many I have seen.

don't know about those, but I got a HUGE ortho bed from Ocean State Job Lot for like 49.00, I've had it for gosh, 5-6 years? and a dog sleeps on it every nite, no sagging

While we're on that subject, at Costco they have microfiber memory foam bath mats for about $13 each. They are 36" x 24", which fits perfectly in a 36" crate. Not as cushy as a full-on bed, but these make great crate mats if you have a smaller GSD or other medium-size breed. They're also very nice for use as a bath mat, soft and wonderful under your feet.

I bought six of them.

They have the exact same bath mats at Bed Bath & Beyond for about $40 each. If I were smart, I'd buy a pallet of 'em at Costco at $13 each and sell 'em on eBay for $35.

I think we have an Ocean State Job Lot around here... it's new I think. I have a Costco card too... will have to check both out. That is much better priced.

Nikki has two of those beds and they are holding up really good so far. We had them for about a year now. The colors/patterns are not great but I put a sheet over them anyway since I wash it regular and you can't beat the price.

Or you could always get him this bed, it's on sale

The one I had for my senior Golden was the SSS Orthocare bed. It was a great bed, never sagged at all and seemed to be very good for the seniors. The price was pretty good too.
Unfortunately my terrier mix took to scratching like crazy before he would lay down in a bed (the two dogs shared the bed) and he scratched a hole in the cover and the top layer of foam, however it still was functional with a new cover if I flipped it over.

This is the SSS Orthocare bed:

I also have heard good things about these memory foam beds but haven't tried these myself:
