I had strong doubts my dog would accept her new bed but after a few urgings I was amazed by her acceptance of it.  I'd tried big pillows previously but to no avail.  Her bedding is a miniature version of our couch, which is one of the reasons, I believe, she feels so comfortable on it.  The size is a perfect fit (large, she is 60 lbs.) The bedding arrived in a tight package that expands when opened.  I was also surprised by how light the bedding is.  I am thinking about ordering a second bed.
