We got this bed for our boxer because we no longer allow him to sleep in the bed with us. He likes covers but without us to manage them for him in the floor he had to go without...until now! He absolutely loves his bed! He got right in it as soon as we took it out of the box and slept the whole night through in it. I have even caught one of our min-pins in it too! It is very full and very fluffy. We got the XL so it is plenty spacious for him and seems to like the fullness of it. He has no problems getting in it on his own.You can not go wrong with this bed if your pets like covers. We are planning on getting a few more to put in all the rooms in the house. Our only regret concerning this bed is that we didn't get one sooner!
