what should i stuff my dog bed with?
great question.
since your dog loves your scent the simple answer is anything soft that smells like you.
the obvious choices here are: t-shirts, sweaters, socks, towels or any other old piece of clothing.
but we've also heard from customers that pillows, blankets, comforters and old mattress toppers work great.
old pillows are particularly helpful when filling our larger sizes like our 36" round and huge size beds.
we've mixed together a number of stuffing options and here are some easy combinations we found. (you might need more or less depending on how your pup likes their bed.)
pillows, blankets, t-shirts ...
my dogs seem to be pretty finicky about what beds they like and don't like, and when we do find one they like, they manage to destroy them pretty easily. however, since this bed is filled with clothes and towels that smell like us, they don't want to destroy them and even favor these beds over all other beds!
