Here is a dog bed in the land of Ugly Assness:


Here is a dog bed in the land of Awesome:


Ugly Ass bed at Petsmart: Ugly + $98 + You better have a big washer + Probably made by an eight year-old in China

Awesome bed via Molly Mutt: Awesome + $50 + Removable duvet + Upcycling

Beds are made as duvets and range from $20-$40 for the cover, plus a $15 "stuff sack" that allows you to fill the duvet with old things - old dog beds, pillows, towels, nasty undershirts you can't believe your husband is still wearing, etc. You could probably stuff the duvet directly, but I think the sack helps with the shaping so it's not lumpy. Plus to wash you just strip the duvet off the sack. Puppa is getting the round bed, as it will fit better than the large rectangular bed which is huge. Andy liked one of the other fabrics better, but Puppa chose the green because I told her to.
Yes, I am geeking out about a dog bed.

Reading "Book of Genesis"; apparently marriage is intended for one man and one woman. And another woman. And their slave women.
