This bed is built to last! Featuring a heavy-duty ballistic fabric cover and designed to maximize strength and durability, our Tough Rip-Stop Rectangle Bolster Orthopedic Dog Bed withstands wear and tear, hard play, and frequent washings with ease. The dense, solid-foam mattress provides firm support for even the heaviest of pups, while the sofa-like bolster provides a cushion to snuggle up against and rest their head. It’s the perfect blend of function and comfort! In addition to being tough, our ballistic covers are resistant to fur, stains, dirt, and moisture. They are incredibly easy to maintain, and can be brushed off or spot-cleaned with a damp towel to get them looking new. For a deeper clean, the covers can be removed and machine washed in cold water. Please note that while this bed will hold up well to heavy use and everyday wear and tear, the raised bolster edge provides more seams and corners for a chewer to latch onto. For that reason, this bed style works best for diggers, scratchers, and dogs that only chew occasionally. For determined or aggressive chewers that like to treat their beds like a rawhide bone, our Chew Proof Armored style dog beds will be a much better fit.

The tight weave allows it to stand up to hard play and heavy scratching. Triple-stitched seams and a ballistic mattress protector ensure this bed won't fall apart, no matter how rough your pup gets. Machine Washable Our bed covers are incredibly easy to keep clean—fur and dirt brush right off, and a damp towel can be used to spot clean more stubborn areas. The cover can also be removed and machine-washed to get it looking as good as new. For best results, wash in cold water on a delicate cycle and allow it to air dry. USA Made Foam Mattress Our orthopedic dog bed mattresses are made from solid CertiPUR-US certified foam and are manufactured in-house at our California facility. The dense foam is a single layer that contains no glue or adhesives and won’t flatten or lose shape over time. It provides firm support for your dog’s joints, hips, and spine, making it perfect for big, heavy breeds or older, arthritic dogs. Water Resistant Our ballistic covers are lined with a water-resistant coating that helps guard the mattress against water from weather, spills, and other accidents. For extra protection, the material is also treated with a durable water repellent finish so that fluids bead up and roll right off it. This keeps your dog’s bed fresher for longer, and makes spot cleaning a breeze. Three Types of Ballistic Rip-Stop Fabric Original Our Tough covers are made from 1200D Rip-Stop ballistic fabric. It has a smooth, slick texture that fur and dirt won't stick to. Colors: Obsidian Black, Blue Quartz, Sandstone Velvet This is our original Rip-Stop ballistic fabric, but with a fuzzy coating that makes it soft to the touch. Extra comfy, but may attract fur and dirt more easily. Colors: Light Gray Velvet, Two-tone Gray Velvet Liner Our mattress liners are made from 600D Rip-Stop ballistic fabric. These are much more durable than standard bed liners and protect against wear and tear. Found on: All Tough beds K9 Ballistics—Built Tough. Built Responsibly. Better for People, Pets, and the Planet Our ballistic material is engineered to last longer than traditional fabrics. That means having to purchase fewer beds over the lifetime of your pets, which in turn contributes to a smaller carbon footprint by reducing energy and fuel usage for manufacturing and shipping. In accordance with the principles of zero-waste manufacturing, we take any scrap foam left over from making our orthopedic beds and shred them down to make fill for our bolster pillows and pillow mattresses, ensuring no foam gets thrown out. We understand that responsible innovation means making decisions with the highest regard for our customers and the environment. That's why our products are built to perform better and last longer—you buy less often, less energy and fuel is wasted, and less waste ends up in a landfill.
