I'm in the market for a nice and durable bed. I have bought two so far with no luck because my dog chews through them after a week or so. I'd like to find something stain resistant and washable. There are a few I saw on Ebay that advertised great qualities at a great price but I'm always weary of that kind of stuff. I think it's time to get her out of our bed and in to her own. She's becoming quite the bed hog.
I've seen some that are like a gore-tex material. Haven't tried them or know what brand but those might be best. I'm pretty sure they're water resistant too.
I have a couple of Orvis beds. When I was on vacation this past summer I went to their flagship store in Manchester, VT and fell in love with the largest size ortho bed they make. I wanted the ortho dog bed for me! It was so comfy, and not too small. : I wouldn't buy most of their beds if you want something durable for a chewer, though.
KURANDA!!!!!! (www.kuranda.com) Easily cleaned/disinfected, chewproof, good inside or out, and great for ortho problems. We have several and I will never buy anything else.
Nothing but Kuranda beds here. LOVE them. I have one in the house and just bought one of their slip covers for it - it looks great, and the dogs love it. The Kurandas that I have out in the kennel have held up for years already, and still look great. There is no better bed for the money, IMO.
We love our LL Bean beds. They last forever and the covers can be taken off and put in the washing machine. Plus, LL Bean has a lifetime guarantee on all of their products, so they will replace it if anything ever happens to it.
Their chart recommends an extra large for a golden, but I think our larger ones are larges. Even so, there is sometimes both a golden and springer curled up butt to butt. BTW, don't bother with their fleece covers... I bought one and it slid all over even with the ties done. I use a bath mat with the rubber backing... works great.
