What is the height of the lower mattress to the oblong facing? Does a dog have to "duck under" to get to the lower bunk? Could a German Shepherd get in and out of that space?

I had to return my co-sleeper bed because my dogs would not even go near it. But I did think it was nicely made and a good idea. I don't know the exact size of the lower bunk but a German Shepherd could not get in and out of the lower bunk. That space is best for a small dog under 25 lbs or a cat. And even the small dog would have to "duck". If the German Shepherd is not too big, he could fit in the top bunk but may need help getting in and out.

Oooooh! Short answer = I don't think so. Height is 8 inches and would be a snug fit. That said, the top "bunk" is open air and stands around 18 - 20 inches from the floor. I have little ones - 4, and I have a foot stool for them to jump on and then up to the top bunk - works perfectly. Mine REALLY love the bunks. Best of luck!

yes, it is a bit lower than the entrance to a kennel carrier, but for a german shepherd it would be a bit of a "duck under" If your dog likes "cave-like" places it would work, my shepherd tends to prefer the top.

May be small underneath for a German Shepherd; top bunk should be fine. Our large dogs sleeps on top and 2 minature Aussies underneath

I'm not sure what you mean but my beagle does not use the lower bunk.she jumps up onto top bed.it would be a tight fit for a german shepard .especially on the bottom.I would yes yes to your question about ducking under for the bottom if it is a german shepard

This would be better suited for a small to medium size dog. I use it for 2 of my cats. I think it's too small for a German Shepard.

It is just under 13 inches. A small dog (I'd guess about 20 lbs & under) would not have to duck. Most dogs would probably have to duck. The space is too small for a German Shepherd. My lab is about 60 lbs now and can only comfortable curl up on top and can't lie stretched out on her side.

No, I do not think a german shepard could get in and out of the lower bunk. The one that I have is an enclosed bunk that zips shut... both of my chihuahuas fit under there. I also have 2 smaller boxers (50lbs) and they cannot fit under there at all.

I do not think a German Shepherd could easily fit in the lower bunk. It is close to the floor and not very high.

My 26lb terrier and 30lb Pitt puppy fit in there, but they love to cuddle so it wasn't a problem. They could both lay down and sleep... It doesn't sound like you'd have a problem.

Likely outside dimension. Bought the bed for my 15 lb Terrier and wasn't able to use it b/c it was way too small. Would be good for 5-7 lb (max) very small breed. Good quality otherwise.

No, the bed is quite low. My little Shih Tzu puppy has to wiggle just to get under there :)

The 19" is accurate. My dog is older, too, and therein lay part of the problem I think. She is medium-sized, a Queensland Heeler mix. If I coaxed her up the stairs, she still would need to negotiate a little bit of a jump from the top step to get onto the bed. She preferred to try the old way, making the full leap. I believe I purchased the bigger of the two advertised. I hope this is helpful.

There is grating under the tray. We put a bed/mat in addition to the tray. My 80 lb lab is very comfortale in the 36" size.

I measured mine and its a little under 2.5inches thick however the pillow top it isn't sturdy at all and sinks all the way down with pressure from my cat. It comes with two pillows tops (one for the bottom bunk) you could double up. For me I ended up placing another dog bed on top of the pillow top and my animals love it! Hope this helps.

The dog is balancing on it? How big a dog? The clearance (from bottom of platform to floor) is just about two inches -- very low. So the balancing is challenging and quick. Probably not for an animal, too subtle.

Back 8" high, tapers to 7" on sides to front, and the front is 4 1/2", so they can get out easily. I put a blanket in there which lifts it up even more and it is fine. Our dog seems to snuggle down in it anyway. We have a mini schnauzer, and it is perfect even with the blanket.

That will be tight the lower bunk is approximately 10" from the floor if you trundle is on a frame and wheels it may not slide under.

The sleeper comes with a 2 inch mattress. I use it on the bottom bunk and put in a couple of rounded beds for them. For the top bunk, I use a regular kennel/crate pad with a round two inch bumper around the edge. I have little guys - under 20 pounds and the whole gang pile in and snuggle. This is a very well made piece. I have had it for several years now and it is still in excellent shape. I also put a big bean bag beside the bed so they can jump up on it and then to the top bunk. I tried the canine stairs, but the bean bag worked better for my pack. My crew absolutely LOVES this bed. Recommend highly. Hope this helps.... The sleeper comes with a 2 inch mattress.

I did not measure the lower bunk, but it is approximately the same size as a full bed. I can't measure it because I gave it to my son and it isn't here at my house any longer.

I think a standard schnauzer would be quite crowded in this seat. If he wants to sit up all the time it might work okay, but not enough room to lie down. My 20# Sheltie is a tight fit but loves being up high and looking out the window.

Measuring the inside where the dog would sleep is 23.5in. by 20 in. I have a Scottish terrier and he loves this bed!

Hmm. Mine stays open about 4 inches. I force it closed since my pup is a min pin. They like to burrow. It's a great bed for dogs that like to be covered. That's why I got it, since that is what the descriptions read. Just make sure your dog likes to be covered. If not, try pins on top. Just pin a little bit of the fabric to itself.... Maybe that will help. But I'd have bought it even if she didn't burrow, it looked so fluffy.. it is.

There is just a few inches left. The cover has a little extra fabric. I hope this helps. My German Shepherd loves his bed.

I measured the length of the bed at 22", so he could be cramped if he likes to stretch all the way out. My 15 lb Westie fits just perfectly in it and really likes it. Hope that helps.
