Both my golden retrievers absolutely love their beds. I bought two large beds, and whilst they felt like quite an extravagance (the beds not the dogs) (although also the dogs!), were well worth the money, as they happily sleep in them. I was worried before that the older dog was sleeping on the floor, as they didn't seem to like their previous beds, and he was quite stiff in the mornings. Now he sleeps in his bed and is in much better shape. PS In the photo Daphne has flopped out of her bed, but she always flops over the edge of everything - the bed is plenty big enough!
