Coolaroo Dog Bed

Are you looking to replace your dog’s bed? There is a new style of dog bed on the market nowadays and you might find it to be more suitable than the reinforced plastic his old bed is made from.

Why don’t you consider a dog bed made from Coolaroo fabric? What makes this fabric a superior choice for your dog’s bed? Well, the reason that this patented fabric is so desirable for your dog’s bed is that it is made of a polyester weave. This means that the fabric is full of tiny holes, allowing it to breathe and making it resistant to mold and bacteria as well as fleas and ticks. When you put Coolaroo fabric onto a metal frame, either folding or free standing, it makes the ideal dog bed. The frame raises your dog from the ground so the air is allowed to circulate all around your dog, keeping him cool and comfortable in the summer months, whilst comfortably dry in humid weather; neither will he get too cold in the winter.

Coolaroo fabric is totally waterproof, so it is easy to clean – you can use your garden hosepipe and clean it with a jet of water. As it is knitted rather than woven, it won’t fray. It is very strong and durable, but when it does start to show signs of wear and tear, replacement covers are available without having to replace the frame of your dog’s bed.

You probably won’t be surprised to learn that Coolaroo is a highly versatile fabric which is often used nowadays for temporary shade such as a gazebo, sun blind or parasol, but since it is waterproof, it is also used to make umbrellas. In fact anywhere that you need a robust, outdoor fabric that shades you and won’t hold rainwater, Coolaroo is ideal for the job.

These coolaroo dog beds are so reasonably priced, around $25 to $50 depending on size that it seems a shame not to get one for your four legged friend. He’s bound to thank you for it!

Dog Cooling Bed

Cool, relaxed, ultimate comfort. Lying in a hammock, the very slightest movement in the air seems to turn into a slight breeze encircling the entire body, cooling it. The mesh material of the hammock conforms to the body, creating cool light support. Wow! Sounds wonderful doesn’t it? Some ingenious designers evidently thought man’s best friend, the dog, deserved the same cooling supportive comfort. It did not take long for dog owners and veterinarians to see the benefits of the dog cooling beds.

Cooling beds are raised dogs beds. The bed itself is supported on a frame with legs, thus giving the hammock effect. Veterinarians have come to the conclusion that the way the raised bed conforms to the dog’s body actually supports the dogs spine.

These beds have the standard optional choices as most dog beds. Color, frame material, size, and of course price range; all are to be considered. Dog cooling beds have two very distinct ‘mattresses’ to choose from.

Perhaps the most common style resembles the hammock mentioned earlier. A special knitted mesh fabric is connected to the bed frame giving the air circulating hammock effect.

The second type has a mattress or cushion which attaches to the raised bed frame. This special cushion is actually filled with a cooling substance. The substances used to fill this type bed varies greatly, from a mostly water based mixture to specially designed gels. Cushions that are mostly water based should be kept in cool shady areas to work properly. The water based cushion actually absorbs the dog’s body heat, thus cooling the dog. The gel based cushion is beneficial to arthritic dogs. It uses the same cooling principal as the water based bed. The gel actually conforms to the dog’s body giving it support and relieving pressure points at the same time it cools the dog.

Maintenance of these beds is extremely simple. To clean the mesh type bed, simply wash it with a garden hose. The filled cushion type cleans easily by wiping the cushion with a damp cloth.

The main thing to remember when using a dog cooling bed is to keep it in a cool shady place and always out of direct sunlight.
