Dog Beds that last?

My dog beds have lasted for many years, but I put this kind of blanket on top of the bed: http://www.dindyrebutikk.no/users/flatazor_mystore_no/images/78878_Hundeteppe_m__m_nster_1.jpg
It has a layer of rubber on the bottom side and is easy to wash. When the blanket is worn out (which takes forever if you clean it often), you can just buy a new blanket instead of a new bed. Keeps it all easy to clean and very soft
My dog is no 12 years old, and uses the same bed and blanket she got when she was 6.

H Arya, yeh that stuffs great. Ive got a couple of large rolls of that. Mines the same colour as yours, grey, but with a green backing and nothing printed on it.
Its called 'pet bedding' over here. Ive got some in the car, and take it camping. You can just put it in the washing machine, and it doesnt fall apart. Great stuff.
I've just got the bed, for the lounge, where his crate used to be.

My dog had a sheepskin rug that lasted him pretty much all his life. Even with rough play and him using it camping too. Washed in the washing machine fine and didn't smell as much as the synthetic ones.
You can pick them up pretty cheaply from the likes of Ikea though mine was a charity shop find. Also rolled up nicely for when we were traveling. Could even attatch it to his paniers so he could carry it and not me.

I use industrial coconut matting like what they used to put at the entrances to shops etc.

generally mine just use the sofa
we have hard heavy duty plastic type ones then just get blankets from the charity shop every once in a while. The charity shops usually have specific "dog blanket" blankets.

Wooden frames and shag carpet scrap. Nailed together. Big, greasy Chesapeake Bay Retrievers.
When they're away, plenty of detergent and hot water outdoors. Blast with the garden hose to rinse and drip dry.
