Dog and Pet Beds....some creative furniture ideas.

One frequent obstacle I find is how to incorporate a client's dog bed or crate into their new room design without having the large beds in their family room, kitchen or bedroom.  Here are some creative ways to make your room design work with your dog's bed where everyone could be happy in the new space.

Redesign a piece of furniture.  Take a sofa table and add a bed to the bottom shelf and enclose it with coated wire to work with your room's style and design.


Rework a chest of drawers for a hidden den for your pet.  Add screen or fencing to the back for hidden ventilation.

A little dog's hiding place under a desk. Another simple solution for the pet bed.

End table pet beds for the smaller dog work well into a room design.  The beauty of this end table is that it can still be used for lamps and accessories to be displayed.



Take advantage of the built-n wall unit.  Make a space on the bottom for your pet's bed.  Utilizing the wall space keeps the room organized and saves floor space for your dogs special resting place.

Another key space to take advantage of is under a built-in window seat.


Don't forget to plan for your pet when redesigning your living space.  They are part of the family and also need their special place to relax and kick back!
