How About A Futon Mattress For Your Dog
I know the idea of a futon mattress for your dog may sound a little strange, but it’s worked for us. We have a Great Dane, the ultimate lounger for a canine. Until the brainstorm of using a 3′ by 4′ futon mattress as his dog bed we had been going through the lumpy cookie cutter dog beds to the tune of four a year. Definitely not worth it. Though the initial investment for a futon mattress seems a little much, it has payed off. It’s now four years later, the futon is the same form it was the day it came out of the package. I also want to mention that we put a washable cover on it, and it really made it easy to keep things clean. All and all this futon dog bed has given our boy sweet dreams.

I have been in the futon trade now for nearly twenty years and have an online website at http://www.futonsfirst.co.uk I do like the idea of futon matts being used for pets but I do have a concern. Its great the futon came with a replacement cover which you can clean. My main concern will be if its a genuine futon with wool and cotton fillings the possible smell that will come from the matt over a period of time. A futon does soak up fluids and that why its good to air a futon as often as possible but with a pet it could really smell!! If this issue can be resolved it will be time to start a new line of pet futons. Kinds regards Glenn

Matt,
Where can one by a small futon for a pet? I’d like to throw away an old couch that my 6-year-old Border Collie/Shepard mix has been sleeping on, and I’d like to get her something natural and supportive.
