Dog Beds for your Husky
High on the list of pointless things to buy for a husky or sled dog is an expensive traditional cushion-style dog bed.
We have bought many of these beds for our huskies over the years, and they have loved them -
They thought they were brilliant toys, and had ever so much fun tearing them apart and scattering the stuffing all around the house and garden!
This type of 'proper' bed usually last about 2 or 3 days in our house.
Most of the time, we line our dogs' crates with vetbed (see below), or with cheap fleece blankets from IKEA.
Both are easily washable, and our huskies don't seem tempted to rip them up.
If there is one bedding product we would highly recommend to new husky owners it is Vet Bed.
It is a synthetic bedding material that is durable, washable, warm and comfy.
The upper fibers seem to encourage water to drain through it. This means that if your puppy or dog has a toilet training accident over night, it will not be sitting in a puddle of pee until morning.
Vetbed comes in various colours and is backed with either regular fabric or a kind of 'non-slip' rubber.
We use rubber backed Non-Slip Vet Bed to line the dogs' boxes in our van. This helps to stop them slipping and sliding around their crates while travelling.
Vetbed is sold in various sizes, but it is usually worth buying a couple of meters at a time and cutting it to the size you require yourself.
