How thick is the padding? I've seen a lot of pet beds at Petco with chintzy padding. Our dog is elderly & needs nice thick padding.

the center part is nice and think, the edges are tucked in. My puppy likes it when it is real cold but it really work retaining heat because when it is warmer out she just lays on the crate pad.

I think the padding is substantial and cushy. Our 10 year old cat seems to appreciate it. He's 15 lbs and doesn't seem to compress the padding significantly.

The padding is 2 - 3 inches and seems cushiony enough, but we haven't had it long enough to find out how well it will wear - don't know how long before it flattens out.

well.. define too large!! I have a 68lb greyhound who loves this bed.... She likes to really stretch all the way out. I think (for her) I will say that even I could have been safe with an XL bed without problem. But if you have a larger grey (85-90lbs) best to stick with this size.

I had some issues. If you have any concerns and your dog does any scratching, I would inquire as to having a custom cover made. They are a great company with excellent customer service and the bed itself is great.

We have only had the bed for 1 month. Our dog loves it. The pad is going strong not even a dent. It seems pretty thick and could take a beating. The white slightly fluffy cover was stained almost immediately and seems thin. Still a good purchase.

It is probably a good three to four inches thick and extremely soft. The only draw back I can see is it is white so I tuck a small throw over the cushion to keep it clean. My cocker spaniel absolutely loves it as she can stretch out in it or curl up, whichever she wants to do. I have two, one upstairs and one downstairs. I highly recommend this bed.

I didn't realize that i came in different sizes? My dog is a papillion and Jack Russell mix he weighs 22 pounds and the bed fits him perfect but when he stretches out to sleep it's a little snug. I use this bed to put him in when we are traveling. Not sure if I helped you?

We have three Bichon Frise 'kids'. They all use the large bed. They are young and light in weight. They have no problem using this bed. It has maintained its firmness. We have had it for several months. Maybe if your dog is very heavy it might have an issue with its paws leaving a quick (not lasting) imprint on the bed, but not the cover. I would recommend giving it a try.

Couldn't tell you. I returned mine, never let the dog use it. I didn't seem to be the quality of the pet beds we've had in the past.

I measured ours & it is 1 1/2 inch thick. We had an old egg-crate foam mattress that we also put on the bed. It is VERY comfortable.

The pad is 2 inches thick and it is slightly smaller than my queen mattress. It is not a significant difference though. Ordering a larger size may be the answer if you are concerned about it being to small

My dogs are 80 pound adult Rhodesian Ridgebacks. The bed resembles a comforter for dogs, with a cool side and warmer side fabric, so you can adjust for the morning chill or night time drop in temps. The best thiing is that they stuff into a small sack so its nothing to put them away when you don't need a layer on the crate pad. My breeder recommended them for this reason-hiking & camping with dogs!

Hi, I own the larger size already and found it withstands my Tibetan Terrier's scratching and habit of pulling on it. Like most I think they could had installed a better zipper and added more stitching along the fabric and zipper. But I also want you to know that the foam is superior to any I have bought at pet stores or other internet stores. My dog has hip dysplasia and he always picks laying on this pad. I'm buying this smaller version so I can put it on top of his larger pad so he can get into his recliner more easily.

I did not order this type of bed rather a different one by Armarkat. I have Chihuahuas and they really like it. I have hardwood floors also & it's thick enough with a no slip bottom. You can always fold a small blanket and place on top for added padding, comfort & warmth. I do when ever it is cold. I hope this helped.

Oh yes...I have an 75 lb.English Bulldog with arthritis and he loves it! He sits by the dryer waiting when I wash and dry the cover wating for his and I have to take it into another room to put the cover back on it or he will try to take it away from me and lay down on it. I guess he doesn't realize it takes both pieces to make the bed comfy.

I think it's pretty thick. My dog is about 40 pounds and she lays high on it. I'm sure you can use another cover if it's the same size.

the top of the bed has a thick fuzzy material. it seems to be strong. my labs are not diggers on the bed so can't tell how it will hold up..have had for 3 months and no signs of damage. plus the stuffing seems to be firm. the beds havent flattened out like some others i've had..i will buy more..need a couple for my car

Not as thick as a regular mattress - maybe half as thick. You don't want it to be too thick though because it needs to bend when you adjust the feet/head. We did have a pneumatic pad on top of the mattress to help prevent bed sores so that added some extra thickness, but even without that it was reasonably comfortable.
