The Crate Pad to Beat all Crate Pads

f156e5d78a2d18d404756c096bc5e1edI got to thinking after yesterdays question about the dog that no longer wants to sleep on the owner’s bed. I talk a lot about crate training and using crates as a safe, secure place where your dog to can ‘chill’ but I never say much about their comfort.

Have a look at the bottom of a crate and you will often see Lego like forms to aid stability when the crates are stacked in stores or in planes. This is great for traveling but for the dog that has to sleep in there, these lumps mean total discomfort by the end of the night. And the trusty towel or old blanket is not enough to cushion your pup, you have to look at something that has some substance to it.

Crate pads are just like they sound – padding for your dog when he is in his crate. These pads vary in thickness, material, stuffing, and comfort levels. For puppies, pads that are easily laundered make sense such as our environmentally friendly EVO ECO Mats. For older dogs or dogs that have mobility issues but still enjoy the comfort and security of a crate, our Super Pad Crate Cushion is the only way to go!

    I’ve often thought about crate pads but Daisy will sometimes throw up in her crate. I wonder how easy they are to clean.
