A Life of Luxury

When I say that Rocky is one spoiled puppy I am in no way lying or exaggerating. This dog has a nicer couch than some of my friends had in college, although maybe that is not saying much. When we went to the city last week we were over Mike's friend Tim's apartment and they had these beautiful dog beds for their little dog gypsy, who is adorable, I wanted to bring her home for Rocky. When I asked where he got them from he told me Frontgate. Of course the first thing I did the next day was search for a new bed for the price himself, he needed an upgrade from his $20 petco bed.

I quickly learned that these beds do not come cheap but they are beautiful. I found one that I loved for Rocky, not thinking we'd actually get it I sent the link to Mike to just show him. Mike being our budget guy and that he is usual shoots down most of my ideas so I didn't think anything of sharing it. When Mike came running upstairs to meet me in the kitchen a few minutes later, he goes to me, "Rach, I bought Rocky the bed." I just laughed, it was too funny. I'm always amazed at how much Mike loves our little guy to go out and buy him this bed just like that and not think twice about it.

All week we patiently waited for Rocky's new bed to arrive. We kept telling him he was getting a new bed. We were so excited when the box arrived today and we took it out to show Rocky. Since Rocky was on the weight cusp for the bed sizes, the small was up to 15 pounds and the medium bed was 15 to 45 pounds, Mike had ordered the medium size bed. I'm not going to lie, this thing is pretty big.

I think we could have gone with the small and it would have been fine, but he now has plenty of room to spread out in it. I was contemplating returning the bed and exchanging it for the smaller one because its so big BUT while Rocky was home alone tonight he decided to rip the take off of it and he also ripped the bolster of the arm so Rocky made the decision for us that he will be keeping the medium size. I was a little disappointed that he had done that and ripped the arm part of it already. Sigh.

I do still have to call them, the bone pillow that came with it was supposed to be monogrammed but it wasn't but looks like we'll be keeping the bed. Here is the king lounging in his new bed, what an upgrade from his last one!
