I've bought a new bed for the dog.

'Large' size, allegedly suitable for large dogs like labradors etc.

Thought she'd really like it as she isn't allowed on the leather sofa.

LOOK AT THE FUCKING SIZE OF IT

😡

My 15kg dog barely fits on it..

I am just so disappointed, DH thinks it's fine.

That'll learn me for buying online I suppose, I should have bought one I could see in the shop.

Ugh.
Don't know if it'll be worth my while returning it with the postage.

It's like a fucking dolly dog bed.

I am so cross.

It's an animal and should be happy outside in a kennel or inside on the floor at best
😂😂
Yeah she'd whine and bark her head off outside.
You clearly haven't spent much time with dogs accustomed to life indoors.

And she is getting older and a little stiff so while she could sleep on the hardwood floor, she is going to have the option of a comfy bed thanks.

Oh and also, the posters that said tiny bed looks uncomfortable, DH sat on it and confirmed it is infact very comfy. Just a wee bit small.

Don't people with dogs realise that their houses stink and you can smell it on the owners too - absolutely rank
Doubt it, visitors often comment my dog has no doggy smell to her.
Pretty sure my house doesn't smell either, though I always say if people find my dog offensive in any way feel free to leave.
No one is holding you hostage.

They’re more than welcome to not come to my house, or indeed anywhere near me if I smell offensive (which I’m pretty sure I don’t).

Ahhh there is the goady fucker.

Surely you’ve solved the problem there, @frostedviolets - dh sits on the little sofa, and ddog sleeps on the proper sofa, next to you! Grin

Looks huge. 15kg is nothing as well. I weigh far more than 15kg and could lounge on that thing. Get a grip

It's really not.
She can lie down on it but can't stretch her legs out on it at all which in my view makes it too small.

I've measured the xxl large and will be ordering that one instead.

Woah @onegiftedgal I don't think this is the thread for you.
Not all dogs smell as it happens and if you clean your house there's no reason why you/your house will smell.
But, as others have said, my dog is my family so if it bothers anyone they are quite welcome to keep their distance.

Zoidbergonthehalfshell · 26/01/2020 19:18

@LurcherMama - nicely put!

Whynosnowyet · 26/01/2020 19:20

Imo ddogs smell nice than a whiffy teen or a faffing dh...
Know who I would prefer to share my bed with!!

TooManyPaws · 26/01/2020 19:25

I've got a multi-dog version.

@Whynosnowyet you are so right about stinky boy bedrooms. 👃⛔👎

Zoidbergonthehalfshell · 27/01/2020 08:37

@Whynosnowyet Ugh, you've given me flashbacks to opening his bedroom door and being knocked back by that waft of sweaty trainers, farts and B.O. Envy (not envy)

SchadenfreudePersonified · 27/01/2020 12:02

Don't forget the acne lotion and Lynx Africa, Zoidberg

SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius · 27/01/2020 14:17

Oh god yes - the Lynx. When your teenage boy sprays so much of it in his bedroom that you can taste it three rooms away and on a different floor. Weaponised fragrance.

SchadenfreudePersonified · 27/01/2020 14:55

It was like a physical wall in DS's bedroom . . .
