PRODUCT REVIEW :: The Fatboy Doggielounge
 

Monty lying on his Fatboy Doggielounge bedI first saw a Fatboy Doggielounge bed a couple of months ago in a photograph on Facebook. The photo was of an adult Lab stretched out on what looked to me like the coolest, most comfortable dog bed ever! I decided there and then that I had to find one of these beds and hopefully put it to the Labradors Worldwide 'Lab Test'. Fatboy kindly sent us a bed to try and Monty got down to what he does best....sleeping!


Fatboy Doggielounge

Monty on the Fatboy DoggieloungeWe tested the Large sized doggielounge. It measures an impressive 120cm x 80cm and it comes in a wide range of fantastic colours.

The beds are made from strong nylon that repels moisture and keeps doggie smells at bay. The cover is easy to wipe clean and removable.

So, how good are they?

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

The Fatboy Doggielounge comes in two parts. The matress which is filled with tiny polystyrene type balls and the nylon outer cover. When the people at Fatboy describe the nylon cover as 'strong' they really do mean it! This is a seriously well made bed. Monty has had two beds previous to this one but the Fatboy looks to me like a bed for life. This bed is thicker than any dog bed that I have seen, approximately 14cm (5.5 inches). This is great because Labs do tend to put a lot of pressure on their elbows when lying down. This bed will certainly reduce a lot of that potentially damaging pressure.

The overall size of the Fatboy Doggielounge is just perfect for a Labrador. Whether your dog is a 'sprawler' or a 'curler' (or both) there is plenty of room to find that perfect, sleeping position. It is also incredibly comfortable. I know this because I lay on it myself and could quite happily have drifted off into dreamland for a couple of hours!!!

After at least 100 hours of testing Monty gives the Dggielounge a big 'Paws up'!! He absolutely loves it
and so do I.

In Summary:

The Fatboy Doggielounge is a comfortable, well made and great looking bed. The size is perfect for a Lab

Whether your Lab is a 'sprawler' or a 'curler' (or both) there is plenty of room to find that perfect sleeping position.
