Super Cozy pads/beds were born out of necessity beginning nearly twenty years ago.  Back then, I had adopted an "Uber Hound", who was an impressive 145 pound Treeing Walker Coonhound.  Basically, he was an inside pony.  He needed a huge, comfy, well padded bed that would last the ages, so I went online to one of those tony outdoor "Eddie Bean" type stores and purchased a huge, fluffy bed with a heavy duty canvas cover.  It was pricey, but I expected it to last.  Nope!  Within two years the fluffy poly-fill was mashed flat and with all the dogs pawing had worn thin spots in the canvas fabric as well as breaking up the poly-fill and causing it to lump.  The bed was horrid and hideous in just a few years.

So, I made a new fleece bed focusing on the padding, and came up with the "Super Cozy" which features two (or more) additional layers of quilt batting in the center portion of the bed to cushion hips and joints.  That's in addition to the layers of quilt batting throughout the entire bed (which can range between two and four layers).  All the layers make it super-duper cushioned, warm and comfortable while remaining breathable.  Absolutely priceless for elder dogs.


About the beds

Super Cozy beds feature multiple layers of breathable cushion for superior comfort.  Layers are made from cotton quilt batting, high loft poly quilt batting and/or fleece remnants unsuitable for bed covers.

Rag Doll beds utilize leftover fleece and batting fabrics for a "squishy" comfort cushion sandwiched between a layers of batting and quilted to hold its shape.

All beds are lightly "tie" quilted with heavy duty upholstery thread to maintain their shape without bunching or wadding with use.

Edge finishing is either tied creating a fluffy, scrunched bed;  chevron which lies flat, or braided which also lies flat and accommodates thick stuffed beds.  Braided edges can be "raw", showing the ends of the fringe, or "finished" which involves securing the fringe ends under the braid with upholstery thread.

All beds are completely machine washable.

Sales of these wonderful beds will fund medications and medical care for my little Dachshund battling Sterile Nodular Panniculitis as well as old age issues. 

If enough beds are sold, ETT will donate beds to a local shelter.
