This is the best dog bed on the market! I bought the exact same one 5 years ago after my shepherd/dane's 1st TPLO knee surgery. The bed and cover purchased 5 years ago stood the test of time and is still in great condition. Earlier this year the same dog had to undergo 2 intensive spinal surgeries, so I purchased another bed for him (one in the living room & one in the bedroom). This bed is worth every dollar! It's high quality and lasts many many years! I will only ever buy my dog beds from Snoozer Pet Products and recommend for everyone to purchase their dog beds from Snoozer too! Thank you for having such a great product! You have helped to provide my dog comfort when he needed it the most!
