x Petco The Dog Sleeping Bag

Great for cold weather states!

Great for northern states! Lazy Olde English Bulldogge, 60lbs, short and stocky, he needed a L/XL He will paw at the vent for more heat, embarrassing, but we love him! I think this will be Nigel’s new favorite thing

Mostly great!

I really like this little doggy sleeping bag! It's mostly well constructed, nice choice of materials that hold up well with little dog paws. Our dogs really like sitting on it and seem to find it comfortable, especially outdoors and for camping. My one issue with this sleeping bag is the zipper: it snags and once it's snagged, it's very hard to un-snag it.

L/XL

initially impressions are pretty good for this bag! i got the L/XL for my 50lb australian shepherd and it fits him with more than enough room to spare. my dog seems to enjoy hanging out on it as a sleeping pad/bed. i did zip it up around him, and he tolerated that, but not sure if he'd be into that for an all night situation. but the bag does fully unzip, and can easily drape over him for extra warmth on cold nights. pros: - fairly durable materials, he went at the outer shell with his claws for about a minute, and no shredding or loose threads yet! - reflective liner on one side, and fleece liner on the top, thick insulation - cozy and warm - the outer shell and reflective side are pretty drool resistant (i wouldn't put him in the bag wet, as the fleece top liner would soak up water) - carry sack - fully unzips to a large bed or blanket - can be used as a sleeping bag, bed, or bed with draped blanket cons: - massive! it's made from thick synthetic insulation - which is more durable and water tolerant, but very bulky, i wouldnt use this backpacking... - zipper does jam super easily - i think the reflective liner might shed some of its reflective dots, i'm noticing some imperfections in the material already, will likely get worse over time - but hopefully doesn't mean a tear in the fabric, just a loss of the reflective material.

Cheap and horrible zipper

Familiarity:

This item arrives with threads hanging out everywhere. It is noticeably cheap material, made with little attention to detail. The zipper is frustrating to say the least. It snags repeatedly on every zip despite your best efforts. Takes a minute or two to get it zipped, and even harder when your pup is inside. If you plan on using this for more than a temporary dog mat, spend more and get something else.

Cheap zipper makes this unuseable

The zipper too easily catches the inner piping / seam and causes the zipper to jam. The zipper caught on the inner seam the first time I tried to zip this sleeping bag up. Even while trying to be conscientious of not gumming up the zipper with the inner seam, this poorly made zipper will catch and cause the zipper to jam

Cozy for camping adventu

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I was skeptical if my pup would actually get inside the bag (we’re still working on it), but what really sold me is that this bag fully unzips and turns into a plush travel mat. We’ve been taking it on the road with us everywhere the past two months and my pup seems to be a big fan! Pros: + insulated + cozy fleece lining to keep your pup warm + fully unzips to turn into a travel mat + high quality durable fabric + as a rescue pup owner, I love that a portion of sales go back to Mutual Rescue Cons: - I love the neon yellow color, but it’s only a matter of time before muddy paws make it very dirty (although it is water resistant!) - it’s a little too bulky for backpacking - maybe you could get a separate compression bag to cut the size, but my own sleeping bag gets way smaller for overnight adventures [I was given this product by Backcountry but this review is my personal opinion]

Great for Large Dogs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 70lb pup easily fit in the L/XL. It's thick and comfy enough for her. It has a reflective bottom which is supposed to help keep your pup warm. The top of the inside is a soft fleece. The color seems like it will get dirty quickly, but the material seems easy to clean. It also rolls up nicely. Definitely worth checking out if you camp with your pup.

Heavy duty thick slepping bag

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very good quality. Thick. Nice foil interior for warmth. Very large would fit most 65 to 100 pound dogs easily. Its a bright yellow material. Comes with a case. My dog was nervous about getting in it at first.

Warm sleeping bag for your pet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the size S/M sleeping bag and it fits more chihuahuas than I expected. When zipped up the inside part of the bag is approx 27 x 27 inches. Then there's a flap that sticks out about a foot. That way if you lay it on the ground they can lay there head on the bag and not the ground. My girls like to cuddle up under the covers so I wanted something cozy for them when we travel. Inside the bag is a reflective, thermal type material on the bottom and a soft, fleece material on the top. This bag is well made with a quality zipper and a good amount of padding.

Perfect for a golden!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pup sleeping bag is the perfect size for a golden retriever. It feels really well made. The pooch sleeps on it even when we aren’t camping. The ripstop material it is made out of doesn’t feel super strong and may get torn with doggy nails. But I am yet to see that happen.
