THE LINER: This is an absolutely storming way to revolutionise your old, tatty plastic dog bed. The Tuffie liner is made from our thick, strong and easily washable Luxury fleece. It fits into your plastic bed and is securely fastened with a cord that grips under the bed’s lip. Your dog can move and tumble round his bed, but the liner will still be there. This secures a warm, padded bed, where he is far more comfortable and will also be happier resting his head on the softened edge.
THE PADDING: You can either purchase the liner on its own or you can add the removable pad as well. If you just buy the liner, you can use it as it comes or you can put your own little piece of fleece or pillow in the pocket in the base. If you prefer, you can also purchase the liner-pad, which will be supplied, fitted, with the liner. The padding option is absolutely ideal as you can separate liner and padding when you wash them so that washing is more effective and the drying is quicker.
SIZING: The liners are sized according the length of the plastic bed’s base. So you simply turn your plastic bed over and measure the longest length (it’s often written on it anyway). If, for example it is 61cm, you choose the liner size “Base: 56 – 65cm”. Once you have added it to your basket, you can pick the same size padding or just add your own. Simple as that.

The Tuffie with the most outstanding performance over time!!!
COVER:This waterproof material has a smooth surface like a waxed jacket, with a little "tackiness" that makes it feel secure. With time it becomes softer like a subtle leather without losing its waterproof excellence.
STUFFING: A substantial futon mattress which will NOT GO FLAT OR LUMPY!!! No loose stuffing that moves or clumps!!!
CLEANING: As mud and hairs just dry up and fall off, cleaning is not a big issue. If the bed is badly soiled, you can clean it with hot, soapy water and just hose down and towel dry. Small accidents can be cleaned up using your normal household surface cleaner. Great for freshening things up without even moving the bed....
DURABLE, but not chew proof: Again, like the Woven Tuffie below, Tuffies are tough, but keen chewers or sharp puppy teeth can still chew any fabric that you can cut with scissors!! Many customers report to us that the Tuffie is the only bed their dog has never chewed, but if you have a determined chewing dog, please refer to the Really Tough Tuffie, our MONEY-BACK-GUARANTEED chewproof dog bed, further down this page.
Our latest customer survey showed that 93% rated their Tuffie "Excellent or Absolutely Fabulous"!!! All customers had owned their Tuffie for more than two years. All prices exclude shipping, which we charge at cost.Read more
Our super popular strong Tuffie.
COVER: A pleasant, tightly woven, nylon fabric with a 100% waterproof backing.
STUFFING: A substantial futon mattress (made with hollow fibre), which will NOT GO FLAT OR LUMPY! NO loose stuffing that moves and clumps!!!
CLEANING: As mud and hairs just dry up and fall off, cleaning is not a big issue. If the bed is soiled, just sponge down with hot, soapy water and hose off. Air dry for about 45 minutes.
DURABLE, but not chewproof: The Woven Tuffies Dog Bed is made from the strongest existing fabric and while many, usually bed-chewing dogs, won't bother with the Tuffie, we MUST stress that anything that you can cut with scissors is chewable to a keen dog or sharp puppy teeth! For dogs that chew, please refer to our MONEY-BACK-GUARANTEED chew proof "Really Tough Tuffie" further down this page.
If you Google Tuffies Dog Beds, you will find various dog forums discussing and recommending the excellent quality of Tuffies dog beds. Our latest customer survey showed that 93% rated their Tuffie "Excellent or Absolutely Fabulous"!!! All customers had owned their Tuffie for more than two years.

We have commissioned our UK textile manufacturer to make the ULTIMATE fleecy material. We feel that this fabric is perfectly in line with the Tuffies brand representing quality, durability and easy cleaning. Our Luxury Fleece is 2.5 times thicker, denser and heavier than our "Light Fleecy" fabric. Pick a Luxury Fleece cover for your Tuffie bed and make it into an easily maintained and hygienic luxury dog bed. The Luxury Fleece covers close with poppers at one end and you can wash it at 50C in the washing machine .........it comes out like new.
This Twill cover feels like a clean, crisp linen, so no pile in the fabric. It is simply a cover for your waterproof Wipe Clean or Woven Tuffie in order to provide that slightly softer and cosier surface very similar to the cotton bed-sheets that your dog may be rather attracted to...
We have again ordered this fabric to be woven exclusively for Tuffies and the textile mill has made us two stylish tartan designs. The Powell Tartan will match decor in blue or black colours, while the MacNaughton Tartan has red and green tones through it. This is a 100% polyester, which is super durable and easy to wash and dry.
Approximately 50% of our customers buy the Waterproof, Woven or Wipe Clean, Tuffie on its own, but for EXTRA comfort, the other 50% of you also purchase this fabulous slip cover to go over the Tuffie. The Fluffie Tuffie is made from DEEP-piled polyester pet bedding (and a light waterproof nylon on the floor side). This gives total comfort and extra warmth for your special canine friend. Fully machine washable. This combination is without a doubt the ultimate perfection in dog bed: Thick, clean, durable and waterproof insulation from the floor with an easy-to-wash comfort cover. Doesn't get any better. Read more
This is our lighter version of our extra, optional, covers. A light fleece-cover made in pillow case style so you just slip the waterproof bed into it. The pile is 0.7cm, so not as deep as the above Fluffie Tuffie. However, this is a super quick wash'n'dry option just to give your dog a little extra comfort. Read more
This optional extra cover is exceptionally useful for the wet winter dogs. It is a highly technical "spacing fabric": Two strong honey-comb open-weave polyester fabrics sandwich a strong, very open spacing material that does not flatten. When your wet dog goes on his Tuffie with the Wicking cover on, the water runs off the dog, quickly through the cover and leaves the dog "high and dry". The water will evaporate from the waterproof Tuffie in its own time. The Tuffie stuffing is dry and your dog is dry. The cover is perfect for the wet autumn and winter days. Fantastically easy to wash and dry.
The Tuffie Nest is all the rave!! Take a look in our Testimonials Gallery to see just some of the many pictures our customers have sent us showing their happy dogs in the Tuffie Nest. If you have a really, really big dog, please see our XXL nest further down this page.
SURROUNDS: The Tuffie Nest has thick, sturdy walls in our waterproof material for your dog to rest his head (and front legs) on without the bed collapsing down and getting out of shape.
FUTON CUSHION: In the middle of the nest sits a futon cushion, again with a waterproof cover. This is our standard futon mattress that doesn't go flat or lumpy.
LUXURY FLEECE: The central cushion is fitted with a luxury fleece, which is machine washable. We have recently upgraded all our Tuffie Nests to come with the luxury fleece as a standard instead of the original Light Fleece.
WASHING: To wash the nest, you can take the cushion out, sponge with hot, soapy water and rinse. The surrounds can be turned inside out and washed the same way as long as you don't get too much water on the seams.
Dogs love to have the choice of watching the world from their nest or to bury down in the warm, snuggly nest away from noise, draft or cold.
WE NOW ALSO SUPPLY SPARE CUSHION COVERS IN THICK, LUXURY FLEECE. SEE THE BOX BELOW.
Again, if you have a chewing dog, our ONLY CHEWPROOF bed is our Really Tough Tuffie further down this page.
The immense popularity of our Tuffies Nests AND our Wipe Clean flat Tuffie beds has meant that we simply had to make a Wipe Clean Tuffie Nest. In fact we did just that almost two years ago as we do like to test products thoroughly. That bed has withstood the most testing abuse by all five Tuffie dogs (not chewing, but playing, sleeping and leaning over it). After constant use our first Wipe Clean Tuffie Nest looks like new after two years.
SURROUNDS: The Tuffie Nest has thick, sturdy walls in our waterproof wipe clean material for your dog to rest his head (and front legs) on without the bed collapsing down and getting out of shape.
LUXURY FLEECE: The central cushion is fitted with a thick luxury fleece, which is machine washable. WASHING: To wash the nest, you can take the cushion out, sponge with hot, soapy water and rinse. The surrounds can be turned inside out and washed the same way as long as you don't get too much water on the seams. Dogs love to have the choice of watching the world from their nest or to bury down in the warm, snuggly nest away from noise, draft or cold.

We have, on many customers' requests, launched a spare cover for your Tuffie Nest. But we have gone one step further: The spare cover is made from our new thick Luxury Fleece. This material is commissioned specially for Tuffies and is 2.5 times heavier and thicker than our Light Fleecy material. A truly cosy and top quality fleece. Add the extra cover to your basket along with your Tuffie Nest or buy it on its own if you already have a Tuffie Nest.
This Tuffie Nest fits an adult Great Dane (or a great number of other dogs together). We decided to put it in our web shop in its own category as it is seriously large. This nest weighs around 18 Kg and is not something you want to lift around the house too often. It is constructed exactly like our other loved nests: a sturdy surround made from strong, waterproof fabric with cushioning padding. In the middle is the waterproof cushion with a futon mattress inside. This middle pad comes with a Luxury Fleece, which can be taken off for washing.
We also supply spare fleeces for these. Please see the box above.
During 2012 we ran a photo competition and received thousands of entries. With great difficulty we chose one winner for each month and had postcards made from them. We are delighted to offer packs of 12 cards for sale. Each pack has one postcard representing a doggy theme for each of the year. You can use these any year, they are not specific to 2013. One pound of each pack goes to Hounds for Heroes. We have 500 packs to sell and look forward to sending Hounds for Heroes the cheque.
The chewproof dog bed from Tuffies. Dogs that continually destroy their bedding by chewing can now have a safe, soft, warm bed. The clever design means that the dogs can't get hold of the soft fabric in the middle and can't grab the plastic surround. In time, years, you may want to fit a new fabric inner, which you can do your self. Hence the bed will last years and years. Cleaning: soap and hose down. Click on the picture for more information. At the moment we only have one size. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE HAPPY WITH THE SIZE: Inside dimensions: 74 x 59cm (29" x 23") Outer dimensions: 107 x 90cm (42" x 35") We have now a couple of thousands of Really Tough Tuffies out in the UK. The bed comes with a MONEY-BACK-GUARANTEE and to date we have only had one back!!!
We now offer top quality collars: Durable webbing with a ribbon in three different tartan designs. The slider and the ring are in solid brass. For quick release, and for safety, the collars are fitted with a double side release buckle.
To match your Tuffie Collar, we offer leads in the same three choices of stylish tartan. The nylon webbing gives the lead strength and stability with a brass clip at the end.
