Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Does anyone use this vet bedding? It looks like a thick piled fleecy carpet with rubber backing? Is it any good? Cheers Gaz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socks 32,253 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Yep I use it it is good stuff ... It allows the water to soak into the backing and dries it up works very well ......... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 How long does it last before it needs changing? Can it be left in for a few weeks? Cheers Gaz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Lasts ages (months at least) dead easy to shake out and wash, dries quickly, my dog who chews most stuff doesn't seem to bother with it. Have tried the cheap version (shit) the original is much better and not even that more expensive if you look around. http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=vet+bed&_nkwusc=vet+berd&_rdc=1 Have you put space for a washing machine in your outside building plans? It'd be dead handy, get an old one cheap and you won't have to wash dog sick off next to your frillies Unless you get dog sick on your frillies .......... but I think that's another story ........

Haha. Yes that is another story indeed. Maybe for the general section after a beer? I've got a washer and dryer up there (just old ones I had off a mate) so that we don't have to put dog bedding in our washer in the house. Thanks to others for replies. I'm gonna give it a try in the kennels this winter. Cheers Gaz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Gaz My Dad used it in the kennels during the Summer when he had Greyhound's, and swapped it for straw in the winter, when it got dirty, I used to hang it on the fence and hose it off, a good day in the sun or wind, and it was bone dry, I really rate it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socks 32,253 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 If you are going to wash it put it inside a quilt cover or something similar as it sheds a fair bit of fluff that coats the inside of your machine ....... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
budgie123 163 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 If you look on Ebay there is a company from Morpeth on the North East who trade soly in vet bedding i found them the cheapest but it is the genuine item. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
