“We first bought 2 Big Shrimpy beds in 2001. We had 2 Newfoundlands and 2 Pugs at the time. It is now 2010 and 2 of the 4 dogs are no longer with us but we still have the Big Shrimpys! We have the “Original” with the sage fleece cover. After 9 years we have decided to replace the covers.

Thanks for making such a great product! You have a customer for life.”

“Yours are the best ever…”

”Over the years I’ve owned a number of dog beds, but yours are the best ever. Not only is it a very nice looking bed, it is of great quality and workmanship, and it washes great. The faux suede Nest bed cover came out of the washer looking brand new. It releases dog hair…hardly any in the dryer! It also zipped back together easily. Our dog loves it and looks so comfortable in it. I was so pleased with my purchase, I’ve ordered a second one for our other dog. I can tell these beds will last and last, but when I need another dog bed, I’ll buy another Big Shrimpy.”

“The Nest is simply amazing.”

“The Nest is simply amazing. This is no joke. Daisy made it her home within minutes of us laying it down. She has been laying there since we set it up. I thought I would have to get one of her blankets and throw it on to guide her to her new bed. No need for any of that! I love the faux suede and it feels like it will last forever. We love using products we believe in and I love the Nest. Do you make one sized for a being of approximately 220 lbs? (my wife thinks I am joking) I only hope to tell as many about this bed as possible. All bird dogs should have something so comfortable. Thanks again.”

“What a great product.”

“I just wanted to say how happy I am that I have Big Shrimpy Nest beds! Our sewer backed up with a bad rain storm (didn’t smell like sewage, but was black silty water) and our bedroom is in the basement. Both Shrimpies were soaked, but completely washable, yea! If our [other brand beds] had been down there the insides would have been garbage. It took 3 loads (at 2 hours of wash time on the “sanitary” cycle) per bed, but it was much better than tossing them away. What a great product.”

“I recommend your beds to all my fellow pet lovers”

“I ordered 4 XL Original beds in May for my Great Danes. We own 2 and have fostered for our local Dane rescue for 15 years. We always seem to have a house full! I ordered the beds after seeing our dogs shoving each other off of the 2 Big Shrimpy Nest beds I had purchased at a local pet boutique. We simply needed more beds to go around! Besides the durability and “washablilty”, I love that your bed fabrics and colors look stylish (everywhere!) in our contemporary home. I also appreciate your environmental concerns and use of recycled materials. Before finding you, it had been impossible to find beds large enough for giant breed dogs, let alone ones of any quality.

Anyway, I am belatedly writing to thank you for including the gift of an extra rust colored suede cover in my order. It was a great surprise, and also a very practical one. That was so kind of you. And it was also an example of customer service that is rarely seen these days. I recommend your beds to all my fellow pet lovers. I know our 6 Big Shrimpy beds are a great investment. The Danes all agree!”

“…making an awesome product”

admin — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 07:12:27 +0000

“I just received my order of the Nest bed for our dog. I wanted to compliment your company for making an awesome product. I ordered online because there aren’t any dealers near by so I was a little skeptical, however I am so please with the quality and care that has been put into this product. You have thought of everything from the design, fabric, waterproof barrier, to the recycled polyester. I thank you for creating an earth friendly product our dog will enjoy many years of curling up inside his bed.”

“my dogs LOVE them”

admin — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 07:15:09 +0000

“I just wanted to drop a note and tell you how utterly impressed I am with your Nest dog beds…I was blown away by the substance, construction, density and overall quality of the beds. I love the idea that they are made from recycled materials and totally washable, too. Also, love the unique purple/plum color–please don’t ever change that.

I was shocked at the many, over-priced dog beds out there that are a fraction of the quality of a Big Shrimpy bed. I had recently bought a more expensive dog bed with a 100% virgin poly fill and was so disappointed. As soon as you put any pressure on the bed, the material compacted right down to the floor. It was like watching my dog try and walk on and negotiate a wavy water bed and that wasn’t good for her joints. Afterward, I did more research and found Big Shrimpy. I was able to actually see and feel one of your beds at a local pet store and I was sold. What a superior product. It is EXACTLY what I was looking for and had in mind for my dogs originally. The outer ring gives much needed head support and stands alone. You don’t have to “prop” it up against a wall or in a corner. Oh and my dogs LOVE them. Thanks so much. I will definitely be a repeat customer and tell all my dog loving friends about your wonderful beds.”

“Do you sell a replacement inner cover for your beds?”

admin — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 07:16:32 +0000

“Do you sell a replacement inner cover for your beds? While washing her outer cover our chocolate lab decided it would be a great idea to tear open the inner shell and build a cocoon out of the fleece. I’d rather buy a replacement than rely on my dad’s old remedy of duct tape. I couldn’t find one on-line and was hoping you offered a replacement.

P.S. Out dog has loved your bed for over 3 years (apparently too much!)”

“…it washed up beautifully!!!”

admin — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 07:17:58 +0000

“I recently purchased a Big Shrimpy Nest bed for my seven year old, 67 lb. retired racing Greyhound. On a trip last weekend with a friend, my Greyhound, the Nest bed, and another Greyhound, one of the dogs had an (Uh Hum) “accident” in the back of the SUV and on the Nest bed. Needless to say, the new Nest bed ended up being a bit “dirty.” When we arrived at our hotel, I washed the covers and must tell you that it washed up beautifully!!! Still looks brand new. I would recommend your beds to anyone who has a dog, no matter what the dog’s size or the dog’s ability to have or not have “accidents.” Thanks for your great product.”
