I got tuffies for my old pair of collies and they were fantastic for them - unfortunately Zip is on his second in 2 years those sharp young collies teeth seem to love nibbling holes  :innocent:

we have ordered our first tuffie so waiting delivery, i didnt realise they are made just up the road from me!
i was also going to order a little raised bed for the little dog but got fed up with trying to find an available user name in the checkout so gave up. why do companies want so much info from you when all you want to do is buy the product? they lost a sale there as i dont have patience for faffing around with usernames and login details.
if the tuffie is as good as the testimonials then we will get 3 more so fingers crossed.
its my gsd's 10th birthday soon so any excuse !!  ;D ;D ;D ;D
will post a photo when it comes !

 :thumbsup: , I would love them for our pack but not until we move.......I hate all the information they ask for, they just sell it on for money........my brother went to a shop to buy a laptop a few years ago and walked out as they wanted so much information.....

My dog has a cage, up off the floor, with several layers of vetbed and a huge sheet of underlay over the top to cut out drafts. In the winter one section of underlay hangs over the door as a flap.

Vet bed is great stuff - really wicks the moisture away.

Am I the only one that no matter what dog bed you buy in whatever colour / material, they always end up on the sofa? :innocent:

Not our collies they don't like living in the house (and the Doberman would eat them), their waterproof Tuffies with wicking covers arrived today and they look very snug in their new bespoke kennels! :thumbsup:

And the bed  :-[

Our tuffie arrived and we are really pleased with it, looks hard wearing and generous sizes so 2 large beds is enough for our 4 dogs. The kids have been playing on it so it must be comfy. I wouldn't mind a similar mattress for caravan actually. ;D
Our dogs get so messy with mud in winter and pond water in summer, they are restricted to 1 room in the house. They used to have free run of the house but the amount of housework they create is ridiculous,especially as they roll in any poo they can find and stink. :o

someone has chewed the corner off of the new bed - it lasted all of 6 days in new condition.  :rant: :rant:  it was £130 and took ages to save up for - do they appreciate anything??? :gloomy:

Oh dear, that's one reason I do not buy anything that looks attractive, we bought a lovely wicker one and the corners were chewed very quickly, I think they like to create their own individual look....naughty dog :rant:

Tuffies sell a moulded bed which they offer a money back guarantee on if chewed, it's the only model they dare do this on,


Our new Tuffies with wicking covers have been excellent, one of the dogs had an toiler accident while we were away, and the dog sitter could just remove the cover and hose it down and it was dry a couple of hours later.

In all those pictures the only dogs that look happy (and that's only because of their lolling tongues) are the 2 big dogs, I think all the others are being told to 'STAY'.
These tuffies sound good. We found some furry (faux Sheepskin?) underblankets when we cleared my dads house, very useful folded up and on the bean bags.
