Kuranda Beds

Kuranda Dog Beds are a fantastic choice for shelters because they are sturdy, comfortable and chew-proof. The non-porous materials are easily sanitized with bleach or disinfectant. Dogs enjoy the comfort of the raised bed which gives them a soft and dry place to relax.

The Donate-a-Bed Program was created by the pet lovers at Kuranda as a means to help provide comfort to shelter and rescue dogs and cats. The program enables the public to easily send beds and fleece pads directly to their favorite shelters at discounted prices. Visit Kuranda's donation page for instructions on how to donate a Kuranda bed to the San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter.
