Kelly_Louise Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hi Loraine - and thank you for the thought! However, there is no way my big boofhead with the long legs will fit on that bed LOL!!! Although she'd give it a good go I actually made some enquiries at the link I was given (www.greatrugs.com.au) and they are REALLY reasonably priced for a very large custom made mat... I was very pleasantly surprised! So just looking around a bit, but I think I'll have one custom made with these guys if nothing else pops up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly_Louise Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Yes thanks SecretKei - I was really shocked at the price... I actually thought it was a typo at first and the customer service was fast and polite. It will allow the long legged git to stretch out, and be a bit more comfy - although for some reason she likes sleeping just on the tiles. Can I just ask you what the firmness of the foam is like? I'm hoping not too soft and not too hard :rolleyes: Not that she will complain... if she can sleep inside if she's scared she'd sleep on a bed of nails quite happily. She deserves a nice mat though... I used to have to sleep on the floor with her overnight if she had to sleep inside (otherwise she would fret and spend her time looking for me)... but spent her first night happily on her own inside and allowed me to go back to my own bed without any fuss and didn't move all night. What a good girl she is!!! Appreciate everyone's thoughts and advice though... knew I'd find exactly what I was looking for if I asked DOLers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate everyone's thoughts and advice though... knew I'd find exactly what I was looking for if I asked DOLers ;) Hi KL ;) I have the Blue Mesh Bed mat in the double thickness in Kei's crate and the canvas covered mats for outside. The BMB I would describe as similar to a gym mat I think. It's got a bit of a 'squish' factor but it's not so soft that the dog will sink right in either. It is a little bit noisy (kind of makes a crinkling sound when Kei gets on and off). I think that is the plastic like mesh covering though as the canvas ones don't really do that. I just put a light sheepskin mat over the top and that solved the problem anyway. The good thing about the BMB's is that they wont absorb any smells and you can easily wipe them down. I'm not sure if they're completely waterproof but they sure look like it! Great rugs custom made me a zip off lambswool cover for it too but that somehow migrated under the bed with a doona stuffed inside it for when Kei wants to sleep there instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
