Kuranda PVC Chewproof Dog Bed
Kuranda's PVC Chewproof Dog Bed earns its best-in-class spot by pairing heavy-gauge PVC/vinyl sleeping surfaces with a rugged aluminum frame that resists chewing, moisture and outdoor wear; its build quality translates to a higher upfront cost but a longer lifespan and lower total replacement expense versus softer fabric cots. Compared with the other entries on this list it is the most chew- and weather-resistant option—making it the technical leader for owners needing a true waterproof, rugged outdoor bed for large or determined chewers.
