Hi all, im looking for a lightweight Ruffwear dog bed for my 8 year old Welsh Boarder Collie Mabel, who will be walking 1047 miles with me this summer around all of Wales on the Offa's Dyke and Wales Coast Path for charity.

If anyone can help please get in touch

Many thanks

I think you need more than a dog bed for her...
a bloody great bone for a start.

Anyone out there got a pet shop who can help?

Why not an ordinairy foam pad? Buy a 1,90m foam pad of 18 or 15mm or so. Cut it in half (two pieces of 90 cm). Tape the two halves alongside eachother in such a way you can fold the two halves on top of eachother. You then have a 18mm pad of 0,90 * 1 or 1,2m.

Ruffwear beds are horrendously expensive, around £70! Why not make one?, worked for me. An old duvet cut down and some waterproof material for the bottom and fleece for the top. 1m of each should be ample.

Look  here or here for materials.
