Mud River Crate Cushion

Best dog bed I have found for the price. I do cut the tags off so they are not chewed.

Our little puppy has chewed up every crate pad we have purchased until this one.

These make great crate liners. Firm comfortable padding and easy to hose off. Dries quickly. Wicks water away from pet too. Puppys may chew it to bits though.

I have a giant tightly wound ball of chewing a-hole for a puppy. Tried to be nice and get him a nice cleanable and durable mat for his kennel. This seemed like the best choice as he's my newest soon-to-be bird dog. However; it only lasted a few days until he was left home too long while we were at work, at which time he also went to work....on the new expensive mat. He completely shredded it. He's a chewer and i should have expected it, however, when he's out of his chewing phase, if that ever happens, I will get him another one, it was firm, well made, good material and a color that should hide dirt and mud pretty good. For a well behaved bird dog I think it will be a great long-lasting product, it could stand to be a little thicker though.

My 2-year-old dog is a very tough chewer. Very few toys other than hard rubber stand up to the jaws of doom. Give her time and she'll rip up toys even when designed for hard chewers.So it wasn't a big shock that when I put the crate mat in with her, she'd shredded it within 2 days (8 hours each) -- literally entire mat was in little tiny canvas and foam pieces in her crate -- despite having other toys in the crate with her. She's likely an end member when it comes to ability to chew through things but if your pup has a similar propensity for destruction you might want to think twice.

Comfortable and most importantly indestructible in my dog crate for my Labrador

first- even the "chew proof" dog beds out there aren't chew proof- they have a "one time replacement" warranty. Anyone who bought this because their dog isn't kennel trained and tears up everything- well, what did you expect to happen?This is heavier duty! It can help with dogs who nest- it won't rip with scratching (which is different than digging!).Rubber underside and tough upper. You can hose it off to clean it. It provides support- no- it's not a memory foam mattress that's 4" thick. It's not supposed to be. It's a crate mate for comfort for your dog rather than them laying on hard plastic or in mud/cold ground. No different than a quality camping mattress pad.If you want a durable kennel pad that can easily be hosed down and will last- this is for you.If you expect this to teach your dog kennel manners and stop destructive behaviors, you will not get your money's worth.

item as described

I bought this mat as my puppy was eating every bedding I laid down for him. Whether it were blankets, pillows, mats, pads, etc. Everything would be eating by the little monster. I decided to look into 'undestructible' pads and came across this in a review somewhere on the internet. Looked the part, so I ordered it for the little guy. He must've left the eat my own bedding phase as he hasn't really tried to chew this one. He does really like it though, as it's much more comfortable than the bare crate itself when he is in between beds. He does make an effort to sleep there most nap times, so that means it's doing something. But as far as the durability and indestructibility, he hasn't really tested it in that way. So I cannot say for certain how effective this mat is. The good thing I can say though, it is hard to actually chew this mat in the crate if you're a dog. It is only 1" in height so the dog would really have to dig or have opposable thumbs to grab it and then bite it.

Bought this pad based on several pictures showing it used in a ruff tough kennel. We own both an intermediate and large size kennel in this brand and the pad doesn’t fit either. The measurements are very close but it’s to big for the intermediate and to small for the large. Otherwise a good product, and we intend to keep it to try it out, just to bad on the deceptive advertising.

Solidly made fits crate

Great mat however the dog chewed it up rather quickly

No complaints from dog.
