At first Maddie was hesitent about the new bed but once I dropped one of her old blankets over the top she curled right up into a corner. While the bed is certainly on the larger side for her (she is 65 lbs) since she likes to curl up into a tiny ball, once summer hits and after long hikes she likes to stretch out so I am sure the space will be good. The best thing thus far about the bed is that Maddie used to always want to jump up into our bed (when we weren't looking and left the bedroom door open) however now when I search the house for her I find her on her Casper.
This is a big bed. I'm 90lbs and I can stretch out all over it. I like that I can make a nest in the middle and have all of my toys around me. I pretty much started using it while mom was putting it together. It seemed really comfortable then, and is even more comfortable now. When it's cold, my joints kind of hurt, and this bed seems to be making it easier for me to want to move around. I don't know if it will help you, but I'm willing to go outside now, where I wasn't before. Two ears up for this bed.
Amber is our new rescue dog. She was found wandering the streets of south Dallas, sick and abused. Now, she sleeps sweetly and safely on her new Casper bed, having earned her sweet dreams.
Sadly, she seemed really excited when we put together and took out of the box. But we replaced her regular cheap bed with her new Casper bed and she wouldn't go near her new bed :( We have tried placing it in other places, but she prefers her older bed. She is a rescue and seems to really like her routine, so we are going to give it a little longer. We have put her toys and blanket on it and are trying a whole new location, it also seems really big for her. She is only 8 lbs, and it is much bigger than the one she has been sleeping in, so we will see. But at this point, it isn't looking quite as successful as the Casper bed that her humans got....which we LOVE!
Our rescue GSD Beau loves to be cozy (wants to get in our bed or on the couch) for snooze time. We thought he needed a really comfy bed so we bought a Casper dog bed. Now when we go to bed/nap he gets in his new bed instead of getting on our bed! Could not believe it. He LOVES it. If we walk in our bedroom he goes and lays on his bed to just hang out and chomp on his ball. Very impressed with how much he loves his bed. Will be buying more for other spots in house!
So far so good, she got it muddy yesterday so going to wash it tonight and see what happens. I went online and will be following your directions for cleaning and drying.
When we opened the box and put the mattress together Charlie immediately picked up the waffle toy that Casper sent with his new bed and laid down and started chewing away :-) we keep his bed in our bedroom so that he now has his own Casper mattress and therefore gives mom and dad more room on their Casper mattress :-)
