Best Friends by Sheri The Original Calming Shag Fur Donut Cuddler Cat & Dog Bed

I wasn’t sure that this bed was any different than any other bed but I was you’re wrong. I have a medium size bed which I got for my 13 pound dog and she loves it and disappears in it. My 60 pound standard poodle also loves it. He has three other beds in the same room and he prefers this medium bed. He’s a lean medium dog being a standard poodle but it is amazing how much my dogs love this bed. Every dog that comes to my house and visit with us immediately is drawn to this bed. Again I have no idea why but I have given some of them as gifts and their owner say the exact same thing. I’m a veterinarian and I’ve been practicing for 33 years and I will tell you this bed is better than any other I wasn’t sure that this bed was any different than any other bed but I was you’re wrong.

I have two small dogs now and when one is in it the other dog drags the bed around the room hoping the other dog will jump out only so they will jump in and take over the bed. It is hysterical to watch. I’ve had this bed for over four years and it holds up beautifully and washes is great. … more

My 11 year old cat loves her new bed!! At first she sniffed all around the bed. Then in no time at all, she stepped in, got comfy and slept at least 2 hours ! I’ll be definitely replacing her other beds with this one. She’s 11 and has arthritis. Waking and getting out of this bed has made her more active and playful. I just love how quickly she took to it. I highly recommend this bed. Whether for a dog or cat , I feel, she feels safe and secure. And a Big plus is,, it’s machine washable and can be put in the dryer! Simply put ,, I Love It and she does too.

First of all, the 36 inch Large size was too small for a 60-lb Golden and Doodle. They seemed to like the bed, though, although they could only curl up in it. Then I washed and dried it. Disaster. Directions did not say to take out stuffing first (2 bolsters and donut in middle), so polyester cotton stuffing got all bunchy. Faux Fur on outside went from about 2 inches long to laying flat and matted. I swear it shrunk. When I took the batting out to reposition it, I had a dog of a time trying to get it back in—especially the bolsters. I am not happy with this purchase.

My dog loves this bed so much. I had seen much more expensive versions of this on social media. I’m so glad I got this one for way less money. It’s so soft. When it arrived I followed the instructions and put it in the dryer on low heat to fluff it up. My dog loves being able to wind herself into a ‘bagel’ in this bed. She also has enough room to stretch out if needed. She no longer wants to sleep in our bed because she loves this one so much. She is a shepherd mix and we got a medium.

I absolutely loved the look and feel of this dog “nest” and so did my puppy... in fact our other dog was jealous and I tried ordering a second one but they were sold out! So a week later, I ordered something identical from another brand (Frisco eyelash dog/cat bolster) from Chewy. Both dog beds were washed the same way and the identical same amount of times and the Best Friends by Sheri dog cuddler is all coarse and matted! It did not hold up in the laundry at all. I was so disappointed. Although it says that they are washable, after the second wash I noticed that it changed the texture of the fur. So yes, it was a beautiful dog bed that my dog loved... but it’s now an eyesore.

The other dog bed by Frisco is still beautiful after several washes. And I would highly recommend! … more

I bought this bed recently for my senior cat. She is an easily stressed, scared, and anxious kitty - and while working from home gets anxious when she wants attention that I can’t give her. I was hoping this could give her a calming place to rest. While she's still skeptical of the bed itself, I’ve covered it with a blanket and she loves it! Though the middle doesn't feel super plush, and feels like some of the stuffing is uneven, she loves how plush the sides are and loves kneading it. Haven’t washed it yet, so I don’t know how it will hold up in the washing machine - but so far it’s been great!

My dogs really like these beds, but after several months, I decided they needed washing. They survived the washing machine fine, but when I removed them from the dryer, on of the two had the exterior “fur” all matted. I brushed it a little to fluff it some, but the texture and the appearance is no where remotely close to what it was before. The attached photo shows the outside after I brushed it out from being matted vs the inside that looks like new.

I was a little concerned that my dog would not like this bed - at best he's tolerated other beds and at worst he chewed them up. This bed, however, he immediately wanted to curl up on. He loves it - including when we first got it out to try he chose it over laying down on the couch. He's a pretty big guy (about 95lbs) and getting older so sometimes he limps a bit after getting up from laying down, but not after laying on this bed.

Wow I am amazed how big a XL bed is , our dogs love it , I wish it stayed more firm for them , I have to fluff it up every day for there nights sleep , they don’t lay in it during the day. I think I would go with a Lg next time because I don’t think I can return it. I feel it would stay firmer if it was a bit smaller but my Whoodle’s fit perfectly on it and have plenty of room . Great bed! I would recommend it over the cheap China ones that are all over social media.

I bought this bed to help these two feel more at home in our new place. They love their new fluffy nap spot so much! I got the large because he is 70lbs and I wanted him to have plenty of space but now our 25lb little girl thinks it’s all for her. Highly recommend! It was definitely worth the price!
