I was very happy to see and the dogs were happy to feel how fluffy and comfy the bed was. Although I have to say that the stuffing became flattened very quickly with my 120lb Akita laying on it. I was also happy that the bed has a removable and water resistant cover, but the first time I washed the cover, the black stripes faded. I now have some black, some charcoal and some off white stripes.
