"I originally purchased this for my cats who like to spend their days staring out my basement windows. I figured I would put this down in front of the window & they would be nice and comfy. NOPE! My 2, almost 100lb German Shepherds saw this & claimed it as their own. "

"VERY disappointed when we received this crate pad. The right corner had green and black mold growing on it. I was very sick to my stomach that our dog had to touch something so nasty to the skin. I contacted Chewy on twitter and they were understanding and sent a replacement. But the replacemen..."
