Here's an idea for a doggy bed (cheap)

smart idea martha

Lol, great idea Martha....Samson also can't get on the bed on his own either, we have to boost him up..I even bought steps, which he refuses to use  :lol: I think I insulted him...I just bought a therapeutic bed for him actually that I keep in the office

That really is a great idea!    Now I wish I would've kept the kids' crib mattress. There was nothing wrong with it, and yes it would have made a great doggy bed!

Delilah has a crib mattress for a bed too! She doesn't sleep on it much though hahaha.
the travel crib mattresses fit really well in the large size crates too, but apparently are fun to tear up.

Hmm thats a good idea.... IF soemone were to stitch a cover like a pillowcse over the mattress EBAY would be a hot place to be with the cost of doggy beds...

I just use crib mattress sheets..

pretty good idea, they have them everywhere here, at thrift stores ect, for cheap......I could slide it under my bed during the day when they are not laying on it at night......... might have to try that
