After 6 faithful years of our molly mutt bed covers, one of them finally bit the dust when our puppy with sharp claws went “digging” to find the perfect spot. Before finding molly mutt at a local pet shop, we used to have to buy new replacement beds every few months, so these covers have saved us a pretty penny over the years... our insert lasted as long as the cover! And we have very big, active dogs so it has been 6 years of almost weekly washing/drying. We invested in 2 new covers and one of the wool inserts and our dogs are as in love as we are... definitely recommend the armor guards as well because they are a life saver with puppy accidents and dogs who are swimmers. Keep doin what you do best molly mutt - we love you!
