I first want to say that while reviews on these types of things are helpful, every pet is different and everyone has different needs. It would be hard to predict what would or would not work for each person until they try it. for us, it was worth it so pls read our exact needs....so we have two large pits. they def can chew and we can only buy the very strong KONGs for toys. they eat all the rest w/in minutes. they do NOT chew furniture or anything but the exception is = blankets! not sure if its the soft feeling or what but they both smush up the blanket w/their paws until its sticking up and then chew. almost suck on it and grind. eventually there is a whole in the blanket and that piece of material they have EATEN! While i want the kids to have a comfy crate when we are not home, I get concerned about all the eating of blankets and pooping them out and sometimes puking them up. We are lucky b/c while not part of the same littler and not actually related, our two babies love each other so much that they are actually calm and happy when in same crate so we only have to worry about ONE crate. We have had other dog beds of this nature and come home to what looks like is an explosion of stuffing and whatnot. this has survived for us so far and my babies are healthier NOT eating blankets. using the ties to secure it in a crate vs using it in the open, did not give them a little "end" to suck on or chew. i think the texture (while its still comfy for their bodies) was not plush like other beds or blankets. so i think in our case, once they realized it was not something to chew, just don't even try. i put two large kongs in there w/the treats so they have something to chew during the day as well as music that i play that for calming for dogs. they chew on blankets tho all the time, not just when alone. they are exercised, healthy and get plenty of attention so i guess its just something they like to do. this has solved our problem. my dogs are large w/ powerful teeth so when reading people's negative reviews i really think that it would be impossible to know if this would work for each person b/c all dogs are so different. i think if we left this out of the crate w/o it being tied down, that our dogs would go to and end and chew. with it being tied, this makes it harder to do and i think in their minds its just not a chewable item like the other blankets so they just gave up and use their kongs. i think they think its part of the crate and may not realize its a removable item. they are crazy smart in other ways so am glad they have not figured that out. i think now w/the easy return process we are spoiled and used to being able to just return things but in reality its a risk when you buy something. if you buy a dress that looks good and so then wear it and find its actually uncomfortable or has some annoying feature, well, you have already worn it and can't take it back. its a chance you take. This seller's details are very clear about returns and replacement. a replacement wouldn't help if a dog already destroyed one b/c it will prob destroy again but perhaps that person could use as a gift for someone it may work for or even sell it. it does work for some. After two large blankets became pieces of thread w/all the chewing (AND EATING), i was at my wits end w/options. the spray does not work for us as my dogs love all flavors of all items. LOL. so was willing to invest and risk the money. again, we have a large size and i am glad i only had to buy one since they insist on sharing a crate!

I have a boston terrier that chews through EVERYTHING with her tiny little teeth. She has destroyed every bed I've bought EXCEPT this one. We've had it for months. It fits perfectly snug in her kennel. She does chew on it, but it's not ripped or punctured anywhere. I highly recommend buying one.

This is the toughest bed that I have found. My dogs will eventually gnaw off a corner.

With the corners tied down, my girl hasn't tried to chew on her new bed. The only negative is that it's a little noisy

My dog has eaten one bed after another for three years. Only the ones I put in his kennel and then only at night. Seems to be a passive aggressive issue in our relationship.
He either has finally outgrown the behavior or this bed just tastes bad. I don't care which. I'm even willing to entertain the indestructible claim.
We are very happy with this bed and we have had it for six months now.
