Pet Bed Review & Giveaway 2 Winners!

The owners of CSN stores who have over 200 online Stores that all specialize their own products including a collection of bathroom vanity solutions and some fun bar stools graciously asked Indiana and Davinia to test out a new bed of their choice from http://www.simplydogbeds.com back in January. We decided to go with the Ultra Soft Small Pet Bed by: Animal Planet. We ran our original review and giveaway of this item back in February as our first giveaway event on this blog. It was a huge success and I was looking forward to being able to work with CSN stores again next year. Well I received an email from their promotions team in May asking if I would like to be one of their Preferred Bloggers of course I said yes! I was given the option of Reviewing or doing a giveaway with any product from their 200 stores and I decided that I would like to giveaway 2 of the Pet Beds that I had originally worked with. Several reasons really - I don't do giveaways without a review so that I know I am promoting a quality product and I feel that giveaways generate more interest from my readers so whenever possible I prefer to do a review with a giveaway.

The Review: (Originally posted on 2/25/10)
We decided to go with the Ultra Soft Small Pet Bed by Animal Planet.

Available in Red, Green, Brown, Tan colors
100% Fiber filled with ultra - soft fleece exterior for greater comfort
Keeps your pet warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather
Removable / washable cover for long - lasting beauty
Dimensions: 6" H x 23" W x 23" D

The bed arrived while I was doing work so I figured that I would unpack it from the box and allow Indiana to test it out so I could get some work done. She has been really clingy lately and I was hoping that the new bed would make her decide she wanted to rest. Not only did she rest but she slept so deeply that when I went into the kitchen about an hour later and opened the fridge she didn't come running after me to see what she could get out of the deal. She slept for about 3 hours. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of her sleeping on the bed she looked so peaceful I didn't want to disturb her. When I went to try and take pictures later on she wanted nothing to do with the pictures. I am really happy with the bed and I can tell that the girls are as well. Twice Indiana chose the new bed over two other beds that were right on the other side of my chair. In fact she got up a few times during her marathon nap switched beds for about a minute and then walked back to the new one.

Davinia however was much more helpful and willing to let me photograph her resting in the bed. The bed is very fluffy so a bit difficult for Davinia to maneuver around still so I picked her up and put her in the bed and helped her lay down. At first she didn't want to relax so I let her take her time and eventually she snuggled herself against the sides and rested so I could take a few pictures. I guess she decided that she also approves because whenever I let her out of her crate for a few minutes (she is still on crate rest) today she would follow me and rest on their new bed. I even moved it into the kitchen so that she could rest next to me while I was making myself breakfast. I know that Indiana and Davinia will be able to both cuddle in this bed when Davinia feels up to it so I would say a 30 - 35 pound dog could probably cuddle up into a ball on this bed and be happy.

Back in February we received a Pet Bed from CSN stores to review. We did not receive a new bed to review for this giveaway event nor did we receive any form of compensation for this post. I felt that since I already received this pet bed for review that I would rather offer you my readers 2 new chances to win this bed. The review posted here is word for word the original post as it was our honest opinion and was not swayed in anyway. I feel that since we have had the bed for a while now it is best just to use the original. The pictures however are new - it makes me sad to look at the original pictures of Davinia and read the review where she could not even step into the bed on her own.
