Dog Bed And Cat Bed Selection - The Importance Of Choosing The Correct Bed For Your Pet
All pets need "a place to be" bed that is comforting, and that will not contribute to potential health problems for your pet. There are some important things to remember when choosing the best, affordable, bed for your pet.
The materials that are used in the pet beds are very important. They will vary with the marketing edge that the manufacturer perceives as wanted by the customer. Reactions to certain materials can be harmful to susceptible pets, and cause unacceptable behaviors of chewing or soiling their beds.
Thankfully, pet bed choices, for dogs and cats, have evolved to the benefit of the animals over the last decade. No longer is the "cheap" bed thought to be acceptable for family pets. Various style gimmicks have come along that look cute to the consumer, but can prove to be impractical and unused by the pet.
It is best to purchase a well made bed, that is pet pleasing. More money can actually be spent replacing beds that disintegrate when washed, or beds that are unused by picky pets.
Be sure to choose a pet bed that is made with non-allergenic materials. The inner part of the bed should also be of non-allergenic material. Some beds are made with cedar filling, with the "promotional edge" promising to repel fleas. These are mostly ineffective, and can cause allergic reactions to those pets that are susceptible. Fleas are best kept away by spraying the environment, bathing the pet, and washing ALL of the pet bedding.
Pet beds with removable zipper covers only encourage those pets who like to chew and destroy their beds.
The hard foam constructed beds, with removable covers, are problematic because they give off an odor that encourages chewing and will not conform to the pet at rest. You can never wash the foam, and will never have a thoroughly clean bed. Most of the covers of these removable beds will shrink when washed and dried, and are hard to put back on, if they are even still usable.
A pet bed that meets the profile of a perfect pet bed, is the WallyBed. It was developed to eliminate all the problem features of traditional pet beds. WallyBeds are available in five styles, with a variety of sizes in each style, meeting the need of most pets. They are made of acrylic faux fur, which is comforting to pets, and filled with 100% non-allergenic polyester filler, creating a heavenly feel of softness that most pets can not resist. WallyBeds are made with quality materials that endure many washings. The designer faux fur prints, and solid faux furs, enhance the pet's beauty when closely matched with the pet's coloring. WallyBeds are popular with home decorators because of the way they blend easily with any decor.

Maxine Scott, creater of WallyBed Pet Beds, began her business, Max Enterprises, in 1991. The frustration she felt, and the need for better beds for her dogs and cats, inspired her innovative creations. In addition to the beds being wonderfully accepted by her pets, the pets of friends and family also found them to be alluring and marketable. Soon after the trademarked pet bed name, WallyBed, was introduced to the market, new industry standards followed. To date, no other manufacturer has been able to touch the impressive appeal of WallyBed. Maxine takes pride in the fact that WallyBeds are produced in the USA, and that customers really get their money's worth. She says her "satisfied customers" are really the pets themselves, who demonstrate to their owners how much they love them. WallyBed Pet Beds, by Max Enterprises, were first produced in Austin, Texas, but the company has since relocated to Houston, Texas. WallyBeds can be found in specialty pet shops across the nation, or on the official web site http://www.wallybed.com. Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Maxine_Scott |
