Description

HiK9 Large Pet Bed compile

The cover stretched over the metal frame creates a very comfortable place for your dog to sleep, stretch and enjoy!
Your dog can snuggle up and curl up or straighten because he is not constrained by raised walls.
The covers are replaceable and available in two different fabrics:

an ventilating mesh for dogs that become dirty and/or wet or overheated
a densely woven fabric (solid) that feels smoother
Clean, hose down, sanitize or wipe away- it couldn’t be easier!

The cover molds to your dogs body to prevent pressure points that can develop into unsightly and painful sores.
Your dog’s body heat is not conducted any further, so there is no condensation under the bed (no stench, no mildew, or damp bedding)
This makes the stretchers especially good for dogs with arthritis and joint problems.
The mesh cover is ideal for dogs suffering from skin allergies because the dog bed can be cleaned very easily; it circulates the air and the dirt falls trough the open weave.

FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

IS THIS DOG BED INDESTRUCTABLE?
No! To some dogs nothing is completely indestructable, however, HiK9 beds stand up to a lot of wear and tear and we receive lots of positive feedback from customers stating that the HiK9 is the first bed their dog hasn’t eaten!
We supply replacement covers so it’s never the end of the world if your dog does have a nibble every now and again.

WILL MY DOG LIKE IT?
We’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like to get on our beds, sometimes it may take a little encouragement but generally they take to them like a duck to water (or should that be dog?) Dogs in the wild will always sleep up off the ground as it can be cold, damp and is also where parasites breed.

CAN I LEAVE MY BED OUTSIDE?
Yes, the frame is rust proofed before the powder coating so can be left outside whatever the weather.
We would suggest the mesh cover which will allow any water to drain through and heavy duty feet to give added protection to your frame.

HOW LONG DOES A COVER LAST & CAN I GET A REPLACEMENT?
Yes, covers are replaceable. Generally we expect a cover to last at least 12 months, although most people go for several years without needing to replace them.

CAN I MAKE BUNK BEDS OUT OF ALL SIZES OF HIK9 BED?
No, the HiK9 leg extensions fit inside our small, medium and large frames only.
HiK9 uses a thicker steel on the XL and XXL frames so the extensions will not fit.
Any size of bed can be used for the bottom bunk.
