I had it at LQS during sew time and everyone thought it would work fine so we were talking about who would be driving by the shelter next to check if it would work for them....when the crossing guard for the local school came in for some fabric and had one of her rescue dogs with her....so we were talking and showed her how the bed fit nicely into a corner, and she thought that was super....the (very large) dog looked up at her with a pleading look and she told him he could try it out....he sank into the bed with such a happy look, like this was the best thing in the world..... well obviously it had to be for him.... and as she carried it out to her van he did not let it out of his sight.

so everytime we work on this project we remember the look of comfort on the old dogs face....
it is easy to save scraps.
