This is a good dog bed; our Doxie/Jackie mix fits in it quite well. The sides are flexible, so when he wants to stretch out in it, he can. And when he curls back up, the sides bounce right back into place. It also keeps him warm, which is great since he has short hair. And from an interior decoratin...g standpoint (I know. I know. I'm a girl, what can I say?!), it looks very nice and doesn't clash with our decor. The only thing that would make this bed better is if they put more padding in the bottom cushion. It's just so flat that I'm not sure it's much better than just lying on the carpet. I'm planning on going to the craft store to buy some extra padding for it because, hey, the point of a dog bed is to make the four-legged as comfy as possible, right?!Read more Less
