would this work well for my 15 y/o 23 lb dog, to lay on comfortably for short periods 30 mins? he follows me to the kitchen and waits for me

I think it would be fine for a dog of that weight and age. Although it's very comfy, it's still thin enough for older dogs to easily get up and down from. I have a bloodhound and she's very big and absolutely loves this bed.

Yes. My dog and my cat loves it and ithey are always laying on it. It's cushion is thick enough for your pet to love laying on it.

yes, it a very soft material and my basset loves it. i have it in his other bed and he snuggles down and sleeps for hours.

I think so, the bed size is right. It is not too big so you can move the bed from room to room easily. I do that sometimes.

Hi Nisha,We purchased this bed for our 45lb pit/terrier mix and she loves it. The pad that comes with it isn't great but it isn't horrible. The pad is about 3-4 inches thick but the bottom is hard so that the bed keeps it's shape so I have considered buying the pad that goes with this bed. What I do is put a couple towels and blankets in the bed so she has more comfort. I would consider this bed more for keeping the dog out of your bed but u may have to add to the bedding for more comfort. Hope this helps!

Maybe. My papillon is 12 lbs and can lay full length in it - but only just. Since dachies are long, I'm thinking yours might have to curl up a bit, so I wouldn't suggest it if his back has to stay straight, as my dog's did. OTOH, if your guy can curl a little it should be plenty wide enough to accommodate him, although you wouldn't want to leave him in something he has to curl in to replace a kennel (they need to be able to lay straight for full time use).

I would purchase the kennel that would allow the dog to lay stretched out. Measure your dog at his stretched out length and determine the size from there.

My dog weighs 15 lbs and just fits. I would not recommend this for your dog. I hope this helped :)

Had this for my lab mix. He was about 70lbs but I think it should be fine for you. Try googling the product and see what comes up. Good luck.

I think it would work for a 15# dog as long as it wasn't for too awful long. We bought it for my daughters cat for a 9 hr car ride. It is a decent size.

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.

We have a mini-dachsund(10 lbs) and it works very well for her. I could not answer how well it would do if she was tired. We used the jacket to do water therapy after she had damage to her spine.

We have been using ours with a 65 Lb., three legged Golden. The only problem we have is getting it in under her since she has problems supporting her back end. I would think for your application it would work quite well as the handles are adjustable. My husband is over 6' and doesn't have to crouch down, it is at a very natural level. We made one similar and bought another brand and this is by far the best. The shape will not be an issue and is is very durable.

The bed stays cool and you would be suprised on how much your dog will love this product. My Great Dane is very picky about where he sleeps, this dog bed was the only way I could get him off my bed. I suggest you try it out, if he is addement on still trying to sleep on the 500 thread count then you can get it fit on the bed itself by a tailor.

My pup has grown to 15 lbs now and I feel like its a bit small for him. What happens is a lot of times he'll lift his left and ends up aiming off the pad, or only his front paws are on the pad and his behind ends up off the pad. I guess it all depends on what size wee wee pads you use.

You might need a bigger bed. My dog is 65 pounds now. He fits when he's curled up but I couldn't see him fitting if he was 20 lbs heavier

My petite (70-75 lb) 8 yr old black lab uses this no problem. Her old dishes were on the ground so this size is plenty tall but if u want something that does not require any bending of neck, this prob wont work unless u put on something

I found it comfortable to sit on for very short durations. Anything over 15 minutes and it was uncomfortable on my knees. My body geometry might be different than yours so I can't say how it'll work for you.

I have an 85 lb 8 year old German Shepard who likes her bed and a 2 year old who doesn't care too much for it because it isn't long enough for him to stretch out on it without his head laying on the floor. If you could get a larger size, I think your dog would be more comfortable

My dog is maybe 25 lbs lighter and the harness is slightly large on her. It's very adjustable, though, so it might work for you. Why don't you ask the manufacturer. It's really worth getting; makes a huge difference helping the dog up and down stairs, for example.
