Not for very long. The cushion is egg carton pad. Ours is showing flatness after 3 months with a 100 lb Lab. It is well big enough for even the biggest dog.

Hello, we have a 90 lb. lab and have had the bed for several months. No issues with sagging at all so far. He absolutely loves the bed so far!

We have only had the bed for 1 month. Our dog loves it. The pad is going strong not even a dent. It seems pretty thick and could take a beating. The white slightly fluffy cover was stained almost immediately and seems thin. Still a good purchase.

My lab is only 70 pounds! I still love the bed and so does he with his bad elbows and shoulders

My dog is a 14 year old lab with weak hips. He can walk on, get up and down with no problems. The size of the bed can handle a larger dog. Definitely would buy again for my dog. Cover is holding up fine.

I bought a couple of beds at the same time. My German Shepherd adored the other one and left this one alone. My friend visited with her dogs and they loved this one so I sent it home with her. It appeared to be well constructed, and it was really thick and fluffy. I was shocked that he didn't use it. I noticed that the cover was removable so it could be thrown in the wash. Hope this helps.

sorry I can't help. he xlg I bought is big enough for two big dogs. I'd try to contact seller/source: dog bed king. it's hard to get precise product info.

I love this dog bed. The cover does hold! I've taken it off and washed it in machine. It was like new, and no shrinkage. My dog loves the bed. He weighs 80 pounds and has room to spare. The bed does not make a sink hole where dog lays. It holds firm at every point. I'm so impressed with this bed I recommend it to all my friends.

Go to the next size up! I have the small cozy for my 7 lb Maltese mix and a large one for my Pitbull. My little guy likes the big one as much as his little one, bigger is ok with this cave-type bed. They LOVE to climb in and bury themselves in the cave :)

I would probably recommend the medium bed for a 26-pound dog. Yes, the bed seems to definitely keep my dogs warm. It's thick and comfortable.

We still have ours and it seems to be holding up well. I can't remember when we bought it though. Probably over a year ago, or around a year. My only complaint is that it seems to move and every couple of months I have to re-center it. Could be the way we get on and off the bed if we scoot or something. I don't really know.

My dog weighs 65 lb. so I needed to get the large bed. Your dog will be just as happy with a smaller one. I don't remember if it comes in smaller sizes. I do like the construction of the bed I got. and hope you will find one that suits your dog.

My dog loves this bed. We use it in our trailer when camping. I've washed it twice and it cleans well. The padding does not bunch up when it is washed.

I'm not sure what the manufacturer suggest as the max weight. I can tell you that often, 3 of our English Setters snuggle in this bed at one time with no ill effects. They each weigh over 55 pounds. The bed is sturdy. Even with your dog being larger, I "think" the bed would hold up, even with the larger weight jumping in and out. The lower bunk would be too short, even our Setters don't spend much time in the bottom bunk. They go in, dig about, roll around and out them come. We had a Corgi who loved the bottom bunk.

I have a 75lb lab/ridgeback mix and he is very active pup. It has held up great so far. No rips or tears, and no bending in the legs of the frame. Ours is very well made. I don't know if that helps, just my experience.

My dog weighs roughly 50 pounds (pit bull). The XL is huge, even for her. But the extra space is nice because she can spread out and lay in different areas of the bed. I have not seen the Large so I cannot speak to that. But, I would say that the XL would probably be too big for your dog. Great bed all around. My dog loves it.

I bought the bed for my brother's 105 pound German Shepherd, and so far, the bed has held up very well. Your dog should be just fine on it.

I got the bed for myself. When I first got it, I was close to 200 lbs. (145 now) My DIL has slept on it with her young son. I have slept in it with two huge cats (16 & 18 lbs) AND a large dog, a Ridgeback. My mattress is a Serta Gel memory foam not light weight. And yet, everything seems to be holding up VERY well! I am SO impressed with this bed! Yes, it think it will hold you, her stuffed toys, and lots of books! Oh, yeah, and your daughter, too!

We have had this bed for 2 years. We added extra 1x2 and support legs. Has withstood daily use by two adults, 2 boxers and a shih tzu. I would buy again if needed

If your dog is not steady on their feet, maybe not. We have a 14 year old arthritic dog who could walk on it but his problem was the 7" thickness. He likes to roll on his bed and he rolled off which stunned him and he will not get back on the bed. I bought two of these beds. Our Golden Retriever who is 10 had no problem standing on it and likes her bed. It's very well made and an attractive bed. I think it would be good for our arthritic dog if we could get him back on it. I haven't had the beds long enough to comment on the cover but I've had other beds with this type of cover and they held up very well with repeated washings.
