Dirty Dog Donut Bed

DGS Pet Products, in Norwalk, Connecticut, founded in 2006 by Chris Onthank, an animal behaviorist. It started as Dog Gone Smart, so you may see that name too.

DGS’s finish on its chenille and cotton canvas fabrics. It makes them water-, oil- and dirt-resistant, so spills bead up and mud brushes off, and it carries an agent that slows the growth of odor-causing bacteria. It’s water-resistant, not waterproof: a soaking gets through. It’s free of PFOA and PFOS, and DGS says it lasts up to 50 washes.

DGS’s plush fabric with a bio-mineral finish, which DGS says reflects your dog’s own body heat back as far infrared, with no wires or heating elements. DGS makes it for dogs who need help settling. It isn’t a medical treatment: for anything that worries you, ask your vet, and keep an eye on a dog who runs hot. DGS says the finish lasts 20 to 30 washes.

A blanket with essential oils (coconut, lavender, sweet basil and cinnamon) sealed in tiny capsules in its fibers, which open bit by bit as your dog moves and lies on it. DGS makes it for dogs with itchy skin. It isn’t a medical treatment: if your dog is sensitive to essential oils, or licks the blanket a lot, ask your vet first. Wash it only when it needs it, since washing breaks some of the capsules.

DGS calls it chew-resistant: 1680-denier ballistic polyester with reinforced seams and a hidden zipper, over memory foam. No bed is chew-proof, so keep an eye on a determined chewer.
