- By mountaindreams [gb] Date 24.04.10 18:22 UTC
Am looking at dog beds and got to tuffies

Have had many beds in the past and all go flat eventually so the tuffie looks like it should be great. Anyone got one and what do u think???

Or can anyone recommend another make to look at???

I got a Tuffie made to measure about two years ago and it is as good now as it was when I bought it, worth every pound!  I had tried many before but this one suits me  best.

I haven't found that they flatten - quite the opposite in fact!  I've had 2 that were a bit overstuffed and they didn't prove to be very popular.  The best one I have is a Tuffie 'skin' donated by a friend (she kept the innards) and I restuffed it with a smaller duvet.

I've recently reorganised all my beds (I have a bed fetish it seems) and converted them all to same colour same size Tuffies (they made me some new skins).  I have the wipe clean version and it's really hard wearing.

If you haven't seen a Tuffie before it's worth trying to find someone near you that has them for you to look at.  The surface doesn't suit all dogs, mine like them covered, but even with that caveat I wouldn't choose anything else.

(Towelling cot sheets make handy covers if you get the Tuffie size right and you can have a look at Orvis too - they have some very nice, but quite expensive, bed covers)

I bought two tuffies, they've had a lot of use over the last 3 years or so and haven't flattened at all. However I did make the mistake of leaving one outside for the dogs and it stinks now, I've washed it several times but can't seem to get rid of the smell so it will have to be binned.

I've had a kudos bed in the car for a few years too, it's lasted just as well as the tuffies but I don't think it was any cheaper.

Hi Tigger, do you know if it's the outside or the inside that smells?  Tuffies will make you a new skin/cover (I've recently had 2 made £28 each) and you can get a shoe mender to restitch it back up for you (Tuffies left a small opening for me to restuff it).  Alternatively, if it's the inside just get a cheap duvet - Tuffies use the same, although they fold and stitch it more like a mattress.

Either way call Tuffies - I've always found them really helpful - they may be able to advise you :)
