Round cave dog bed in Show Dog fabric

Go Ahead.
Dig.

The Luxury Cozy Cave® in Show Dog fabric is the original round, hooded dog bed wrapped in our toughest cover: an upholstery-grade weave rated to more than 100,000 double rubs.

Inside is the soft cedar-and-poly pillow that nesters like to rearrange before they lie down. Outside is a fabric chosen for homes where the bed gets dug, dragged and shared.

Why this fabric

The softest fill.
The toughest cover.

Burrowing is hard on a bed. Dogs scratch at the entrance, turn circles, and shove the pillow into place before they settle. This Cozy Cave pairs the fill that rewards all that nesting with the cover that stands up to it.

The fill

A pillow made for nesting.

The original Cozy Cave fill is a loose, plush pillow of recycled poly-cotton fiber with cedar blended through it. It gives when a dog digs, holds the hollow they make, and can be topped up or thinned out through the zipper. Of the Cozy Cave fills, it is the softest.

The Sherpa sleep surface

Plush where the digging happens.

The Show Dog fabric takes the abuse on the outside. Inside the cave, every surface is Sherpa, a thick, cruelty-free pile that holds warmth.

Who it’s for

For multi-dog homes
and serious diggers.

If one Cozy Cave has ever caused an argument in your house, you are not alone: reviewers with Whippets, Vizslas and German Shorthaired Pointers describe buying a second so the dogs stop competing for the first. Show Dog fabric is the one to choose when the bed will see that kind of traffic.

Find their size

Three sizes. One rule.

Measure nose to base of tail, find the matching body-length range, and round up if you are close to the line. Dogs use this bed two ways, curled inside or sprawled on top, and both take more room than you expect.

Sizes show the outside diameter. Breeds are just examples.

Questions owners ask
What does “100,000+ double rubs” mean?

It is an abrasion test used on upholstery. A machine rubs the fabric back and forth until it shows wear, and each back-and-forth counts as one double rub. Show Dog fabric is rated past 100,000.

Is this the original Cozy Cave?

Yes. It is the same round, hooded Cozy Cave that owners in our reviews have been buying for more than a decade, with the original poly-fill pillow, in a heavier fabric.

Will a dog who digs ruin it?

The outer fabric is our most abrasion-resistant. The Sherpa inside is softer and can wear where a dog digs at the same spot for years, which is why replacement covers are sold separately.

Can I adjust how full the pillow is?

Yes. The pillow has a zipper, so fill can be added or removed.

Do dogs overheat inside?

Dogs come and go as they please. One reviewer’s dog burrows until he is warm, then moves to lie on top, so the bed works both ways.
