<p class=MsoNormal>I’m wondering what people on the drool use for dog
beds. In the past we have bought the ready-made dog pillows with either
foam or cedar chips enclosed inside a “pillow”. I have
found that they get very stinky if you only wash the outer covering and if you
try to wash the inside “pillow”, the foam tends to get lumpy.
I decided to make my own and bought some 4” foam and made my own pillow
coverings but I find that even though I wash it regularly, now the foam gets
stinky and for some reason, the foam attracts a lot of dog hair so it looks
like a big furry pillow. I’m wondering if anyone has any good
suggestions on what to use that would be comfortable for the dog, yet easy to
keep clean and launder. I’ll need 3 of them so it also needs to be
cost effective. I had originally thought of using something like a crib
mattress, covering it with one of those waterproof covers that zip on and off
and then covering it with a sheet but I don’t really have the floor space
for something that big. I don’t think a regular bed pillow will be
big enough. Anyone have any creative solutions?<o:p></o:p></p>
