As someone who’s had dogs for going on 8 years now, I personally prefer keeping their feeding area separate from their sleeping spot. I’ve found that my dogs get a bit territorial about their food and it’s gotten them a bit upset when the other tries to nap on “their” bed.
If you’re looking for an alternative, raised feeding stations are a great choice! They’ve been really helpful with my lab who has some digestive issues and could really benefit from eating in a more upright position. They also help keep feeding zones tidy, which can make cleanup easier post-meal times.
Anyway, that’s just my two cents. Anyone else have suggestions or alternatives they recommend? Or do your dogs not mind sharing their bed-food combo?
Wow, it’s the first tiem I’ve heard of someone using the Ugg dog bed as a dining spot for their fur baby. I’m usually more used to items like these being sleeping havens for our four-legged friends. My old Lab, Sammy, loves lounging in his similar Ugg pet bed after dinner—it’s like his little royal throne!
But using one for meal time? Intriguing…however, I am a bit skeptical—are you guys finding it easy to clean off food spills from the material? Is it machine washable or only spot clean? Murphy’s law tends to rule at my house and where there’s a pup with food, there are bound to be spills! Would love some feedback before I give this a shot!
Bought an Ugg dog bed for my labrador, Daisy, about 6 months ago and let me tell you – she absolutely loves it. I originally got it just for her to lounge around in but noticed she has a tendency to nibble on her food while chilling in it so it became an accidental dining spot…silly, huh? 😅 The only issue is that the cushion gets dirty pretty easily from the food drops, but thankfully it’s machine washable.
One thing I’d recommend is to place a food mat or something similar under the bed during meal times to prevent accidental spillage seeping into your carpet. Any of you also have dogs who prefer munching in comfy spots? Or is it just Daisy?! 🙈
