 Coolaroo Large Pet Bed - Green With Black Frame Dec 23, 2007
By GGecko
"UhrTeufel"
These are GREAT pet beds! - We have one for each of our two Labradors and they just love 'em! BTW, there IS a subtle trick to assembling them; i.e., you MUST keep ALL bolts loose right up to the final one that connects the second of the two spreader bars to the leg frames. When you're ready to insert the last bolt, situate the bed so that only three legs touch the floor and, then, LEFT THAT LAST LEG UP ABOUT SIX INCHES - JUST ENOUGH TO RELIEVE THE STRESS IN THE COOLAROO FABRIC!!! Then wiggle that LAST bolt through the leg frame into the crossbar and tighten it JUST enough to hold the entire assembly together. FINALLY, using a couple of phone books or someone's "spare foot", keep the corner diagonal to the one with the last bolt you just "wiggled" into place DOWN ON THE FLOOR and s.t.r.e.t.c.h. the cover taut by forcing the LAST LEG DOWN onto the floor and into proper alignment with the other three legs! ... NOW! - TIGHTEN ALL THE BOLTS! ... Simple, huh?

 Size Info. Jun 28, 2007
By ❤ Ann
"geek mom"
I initially ordered the medium Coolaroo based on a review from someone with a 60lb. dog. Unfortunately, it's much too small for my 50lb. lab mix, so I'll have to exchange it for the large bed.
From the front of the box for the size Medium bed:
"For Medium Dogs - Beagle, Border Collie, Bull Terrier, Cocker Spaniel, Kelpie, etc."
Looks like a nice bed, but it would have been helpful to have the above info. in the description...

A Trick To Assembling THIS Pet Bed ... Dec 06, 2007
By GGecko
"UhrTeufel"
I've assembled three of these puppies (Pun Intended!) so far, and, right at the end of the job, there's a trick ya' gotta' do! ... FIRST! - verify that EACH and EVERY bolt is loose enough to warp the frame slightly; i.e., with a phone book or someone's foot (!) on ONE of the corners, lift UP the DIAGONALLY-OPPOSITE corner JUST enough to align the (final) bolt hole in the cross member with the (final) bolt hole in the support frame!!!
Then, just thread the LAST remaining bolt through and tighten it just a little! ... FINALLY, PUSH ALL four corners down onto the floor and into alignment - use MORE phone books or ONE of your remaining "free" arms! ... THEN finish tightening up ALL the bolts!
PLEASE NOTE THAT, when you align ALL four legs evenly on the floor, the fabric tightens up considerably! CONVERSELY, lifting ONE of the legs up allows the fabric to slacken just enough to line up that final bolt! Trying to assemble this thing with all four legs "in the same plane" of alignment down on the floor is an exercise in futility AND utter frustration!
BTDT! ... BEST Regards AND GOOD LUCK!

My dog loved it!!! Sep 12, 2007
By Raymond T. Gilbeaux
"Troy and Valrie Gilbeaux & family"
We saw the Cool a Roo at a local pet store being used by some dogs. They seemed SO comfortable. We went home and found it at Amazon.com. Our beloved Boxer Deuce was diagnosed with terminal cancer the day after I ordered it. He was uncomfortable and not resting. The CoolaRoo came in and i set it up for him. He instantly climbed up on it and looked relaxed for the first time since he got sick. He slept on the Cool a Roo EVERY night for 3 weeks till he passed away. Thanks Cool A Roo for making his last few weeks better.

Cool Idea Jul 12, 2006
By P. Williams
We have two large pet beds for my 75 lb. dalmation and 120 lb. lab. My dogs love them! They stay fairly clean because the dirt/dust sifts right through the loose weave in the fabric which also allows the air to circulate and the dogs stay cooler. I keep them on my carport and when it rains and the water runs in on the concrete floor, the raised bed and dogs stay dry and comfortable. I have just adopted a new stray mother dog and plan to keep her and one of her pups. I ordered 2 additional Coolaroos for them today. A great product - wish I'd thought of it first!
