Raised Pet Hammock Info

Well, it's that time of year again -- you know, when it starts to get hot, humid, and buggy. At least, it's that time here in PA.

And with the advent of heat, humidity, and nasty little insects, it's time to pull out ...


[drum roll please]


...ta da...


the all-purpose pet hammock (aka, raised pet bed)!!! You can see Kenya modeling ours in the last blog entry. :o)


Just consider its many uses (are you ready for a blast from last year's past?).


1. Multiple sleeping puppy support:




2. Multiple playing puppy support:





3. Puppy hiding place:



4. Comfy nursing spot:



5. Handy, comfy chewing spot (bone not included):





6. And, of course, cool, up-from-the-hot-buggy-ground resting place:



Our hammocks are going on their third season, and still going strong. We've used them indoors and out, so they've seen constant use since we purchased them. We've hosed them down, left them out in wind and rain, let them stand in the baking sun, set them up inside in front of the wood stove, and exposed them to all kinds of conditions. They've been pooped on, piddled on, slept on, jumped on, wrestled on, eaten on, flipped over, scrubbed, and stacked, and their mesh and frames are still sturdy (no sign of rot or rust yet).

And these hammocks, though well-built and sturdy, are considerably less expensive than others we've seen elsewhere.

So here's where you can find them (and yes, they are in stock and still affordable this season):

Plow and Hearth (www.plowandhearth.com), in the pet section. Just CLICK HERE to go straight to the product page (they call them "raised pet beds").

We use the "large" raised pet bed, listed now for $29.99 (last year they listed for $24.99 -- oh well).


So there you have it, just in time for the new, up-and-coming hot season.

:o)

I can't recommend these highly enough -- and they've survived our labs (and our litter, too)!

Enjoy!

'Til next time,
