Big Barker7" Pillow Top Orthopedic Dog Bed - XL Size - 52 X 36 X 7 - Burgundy - For Large and Extra Large Breed Dogs (Headrest Edition)

Although I had free 2 day shipping with Prime, I got the bed in one day. I also bought the waterproof liner, and that came in 2 days.We have an 8 year old yellow English Lab that weighs about 95 pounds. She had been sleeping on a baby's crib mattress for about 6 months. Every night she was up, down and around, on the bed, then back on the mattress, get up, circle circle, scratching, more shifting, and then back off and on the floor, and this went on every night. I had been looking at this Big Barker bed for a while, and just couldn't get past the price of it. When I finally decided just to go ahead and order, I then spent several days trying to decide whether to get the large or extra large. The crib mattress was 2 inches shorter in width and 4 inches shorter in length than the large dog bed, but the extra large bed was going to be massive in size compared to the crib matters, and I had to factor in that she currently slept on my side of the bed and I would then be having to walk on the extra large every time I got in and out. So I bought the large size, and it turned out just perfect. Even when stretched out length size as labs do, she has several inches to spare.The bed comes in a pretty small box compared to what the actual size was to be. It comes wrapped in what is a heavy duty Saran wrap and then expands immediately as you unwrap it. Within a minute it was poofed out into the full size bed. Amazing really. The cover came right off with the large zipper along the back. The waterproof liner slid right on, then the fabric cover went right back on it without any issues at all.The first night our lab went right to it, circled once and flopped right down. I don't think she moved all night, and neither one of us heard her, and we think she was in the same exact to the inch position when we got up. She's been sleeping on it for several nights now, and she continues to be content with it.I have to be honest and let you know that I laid down on it and I wished it was my mattress as I currently am having a very love/hate relationship with my mattress and I toss and turn during the night trying to find a better position. We are only the first week in, but I really don't think there will be any issues.The waterproof liner was a surprise. I didn't really know what to expect with it, but it turned out to be a really high end type of material, very soft to the touch, not plastic or a tarp material at all, and it does not create any sound at all. So glad that was available, not for the dog issues, but I have been known to drop my water bottle on the bed in the past.

When I first read about this bed and did a little research (Thank you WorldMastiffForum.com!), I wanted one right away. After I saw the price, I had to think about it for a few months. We didn't really need another bed yet as I had been taking good care of the two most recent $100 plus orthopedic beds we had by keeping them covered with fitted sheets and fleece throws that I could take off and wash frequently, but the foam was gradually flattening despite my best efforts of flipping and rotating the beds. Finally, we decided our rescue babies, a 130 lb. female mastiff and 120 lb. male great dane/Labrador retriever mix, would get a giant Big Barker to share for Christmas this year!Unfortunately, we found out in October that our male needed TTA surgery for a torn ligament in his knee. We decided to order the bed early so that he could get used to it and then have a comfortable place to recuperate after surgery. When it arrived and we finally got it unwrapped from all the plastic wrap that compressed it to about a fourth of its size, we were surprised at just how large and heavy it was! As per the instructions, it took the foam a few days to fully expand at which point my husband hauled the bed upstairs to our bedroom. We added the waterproof liner and the cover (it took both of us to do this), then topped it with a mattress pad and a sheet that can be taken off and washed a couple times a week.At first the dogs weren't that thrilled with the bed, but over the course of a week, it became their preferred bedtime spot. Both of them can lay on it comfortably, and when only one dog is using it, they can stretch out as far as they want and still be supported. We moved the bed to the main level and surrounded it with a folding pen for use while recuperating and it has been wonderful for that purpose! There was more than enough room for our boy to stretch out, get up and turn around. We also had plenty of room to sit beside him and do passive range of motion exercises on his leg. I have to confess, we even stretched out beside him and snuggled for a lot longer than we would have had it not been so comfy! It's been two weeks since his surgery, the surgeon said he's doing remarkably well, and he's been given a little more freedom to move about. Guess what? After letting him out this afternoon so he could move into the adjacent room which is carpeted and contains two older hundred-dollar-beds that we restuffed, he chose instead to return to his Big Barker bed!We are impressed with the quality and construction of our Big Barker giant bed with headrest (...which they use adorably!) and are very happy we made this purchase. Yes, it was expensive, but the beds we had been buying weren't cheap and those wore out. We even ordered memory foam mattresses and egg crate foam (again, not cheap) and cut that down to restuff a couple of beds hoping to get a bit more use out of them. With Big Barker offering an unheard of 10 year warranty, this bed will likely outlive many of the dogs for whom it's purchased. We'll be buying another Big Barker as soon as those other beds we have go flat ...or I get tired of stuffing, rotating and flipping them. ;)Update: Since our original purchase of the GIANT Big Barker bed reviewed above (which is still as full and supportive as ever), we've expanded our collection. We bought an XL bed with headrest for our dog with knee problems to use downstairs and stacked the two existing ortho beds for our mastiff. It seems that even two regular beds can't compete with the comfort of a Big Barker though as she would find ways to get him off the new bed so she could steal his spot. The only solution was to order another XL bed, our 3rd Big Barker in 9 months! It's a huge testament to a product when your oversized lap dog chooses to lie on his bed in another room over laying with you on the couch, but that's exactly what happens most nights. We highly recommend Big Barker and look forward to more products from this company!

este color es horrible para mi perro!, apenas se sube 2 minutos y ya se lleno de pelos, recomiendo comprar otro color de funda para que no tengan problema, pero siete mil pesos por esta cama es un insulto!, ya ni mi abuelita tiene una cama tan cara!

Yes these beds are expensive but well worth the money! I bought the Big Barker bed with headrest for my 2.5 yr old 85 lb lab mix. She had TPLO surgery and it is helping her recover tremendously. She had bedsores that are now healing since she has been using it. It is a firm bed, no doubt, but that's what I think she likes about it. I have a softer bed for her as well (different, cheaper brand) so that she can choose whichever one she likes; 90% of the time she chooses the Big Barker bed. I would highly recommend this product. She really likes the headrest so I am glad I paid the extra money for that model.

I bought this product for my Labrador, who suffers from arthritis in the spine.She took to it immediately and even uses the pillow!The cover is easy to clean. I use sticky roll and a damp cloth if I need to.I have not washed the cover as I protect it with a blanket in the winter and a cool sheet in the summer. I air it outside once a month and also vacuum it.Wish the manufactures would make funky fitted sheets for it as well.My girl would highly recommend it! I got the 7" as she is a big lab.I have had this bed since May 2017 and it is still in excellent condition. I have not washed the cover as I protect it with a blanket. I air it outside once a month and also vacuum it. Really worth the money - one of my best buys ever!

I did a lot of research on beds for large dogs as I couldn't find one that my dog could comfortably fit on (she's 125 lbs). I kept coming back to the Big Barker, but was hesitant because of the price. I finally decided that I had to go ahead, and am so happy I did. The bed is extremely well made, and my dog is very comfortable. The first night she had the bed, is the first night she didn't sleep at our bedroom door. She didn't even get up to meet us in the morning as she was in such a deep sleep! We all know that large dogs can suffer from joint problems, and I think having this bed will help to keep her happy and healthy as she gets older. Great job Big Barker!

Very quick prompt service. I ordered on Bank Holiday Weekend, and was here on the next working day tuesday to the UK. It was very well packaged, and came with unpacking instructions. My 10 year old Staffie, has taken to this bed really well, when in the past he has been uncertain of new beds. This bed is at the higher budget range, but worth every penny, as he has slept in it, very well every night, and has often been retiring to it during the day, which is unheard of for him! The information that has also been provided with this is very helpful, and looks very easy to clean for the future. I would highly recommend this product to any dog lover, and especially for the older larger breed.Thanks again to Eric, Matt and Team, you have been a pleasure to deal with.
