Low Cost Elevated Dog Beds You can Make yourself! Columbus Dog Connection Makes and Donates these to shelters.

The inspiration for our beds: Dogs in rural shelters sleeping on wet kennel floors. Notice the dog in the white container above ?

Columbus Dog Connection was moved to create a low cost elevated dog bed. A few Doggedly Dedicated Dogmanity Do'ers, pulled their creative talents and came up with an easy and inexpensive way for anyone to build an elevated dog bed. Follow the link to their website below, and you will see simple, inexpensive plans to help dogs in shelters who must sleep on wet concrete kennel floors. We estimate the cost for you to build a bed to be $12.

As of May, of this year, 2010, Columbus Dog Connection has received donations for, paid for, made and donated 779 to shelters in Ohio, Indiana, West Virginia and Kentucky.Counties in Orange also have received beds.
