Can anyone recommend a good raised dog bed. We have just realised how much condensation there is gathering underneath our dogs beds when they are on a laminate floor!!  it was never a problem when the beds were on carpet. It doesn't seem to be coming through to the surface, and the dogs do have an extra padded cushion to lay on as well so they aren't laying on the damp.
I couldn't believe how damp they were on the underside, so we need to get them beds that are raised up. I've seen the Durabed one and the Barkshire one but wondered if anyone had experience of these or any others that might be better. I am planning on putting their ordinary soft beds onto these. I want to know if the Durabed has rubber feet as I will need something to stop them skidding if the dogs vacate them in a rush!
If someone does use a raised bed on laminate flooring does it solve the problem of condensation?
any feedback will be much appreciated.

Have a look at Messano, the beds are not cheap but I know a few people who have them and they come highly recommended. Infact when I visit one of them, my girl quite often takes herself to bed.

I have Coolaroo raised dog beds. They are not the most attractive of beds! However, what a difference they have made to my dogs in outdoor kennels! I was constantly battling condensation and they have 100% solved the problem.

They were a fair bit cheaper than other brands - think I was around £25 for the medium size through ebay.

The dogs love them and seem really comfy.

I'm not sure if the feet have rubber stoppers but will have a look in the morning for you if you are interested in that brand :)

We have 2 from Splendid Pets. http://splendidpets.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=515&osCsid=f2b82b1bc27741ac86877c3e096e0df4
We bought them on offer so we a little cheeper but there is 3 sizes
Small (L28xW21) £44.99
Medium(L36xW27) £54.99
Large(L48xW30) £64.99

They are a bit more expensive but worth it, we have the small & Large one, which stand 6 inches of the floor. It came complete with a thick & cosy quilt but I think the company have changed them a little?? Take a look and see what you think

Take a look at www.tolvi.co.uk , they sell raised sleeping benches.

I like the splendid pets one :) Very fancy with the wrought iron!

I think, for indoors, I would go for this type of decorative one. The coolaroo beds that I use outside are rather ugly!

Looking at some of these beds I feel realy mean now my gsd has a quilt on the floor. Her sister who is owned by my sister uses the childrens indoor trampoline the type from early learning centre etc  and looks very comfy.

Hub International make to order

I forgot to put in my earlier post that 5 Whips sleep on the large bed quite easily

Many thanks to everyone for your help and suggestion. I appreciate it.
We are now sorted. I purchased two med. sized wicker ones (on legs) off Ebay last night. Hubby thought wicker would look nicer and breathe more. Good idea when I looked at them. Bit dearer most of them but found this one at a very reasonable price.
So just waiting for them to arrive now.
I need two med. rather than one large as they don't like to/won't sleep together, but will sleep happily with the beds side by side !!
Thanks again
Anne
