I like it after I meet individuals who share the identical ardour for his or her furry little pals as I do. I by no means discuss different enterprise individuals until I really feel a real connection and I felt a connection after I first met Megan Travers at a networking occasion in Melbourne CBD, we hit it off immediately. Not solely is Megan a wiz at PR, promoting and digital however she additionally loves canines and based a distinctive model known as Dogtired, which specialises in high-end, modern beds for canines. As quickly as I discovered this out I couldn’t assist myself however to indicate her images of Goochie.
Doesn’t he look good-looking. It took me hours to brush his coat to ensure he seemed superb for this picture.
It took an exhausting 18 months of designing and prototyping with a neighborhood industrial designer to create the right mattress for canines and the primary Dogtired mattress was launched in December 2012.
Megan was very specific with the design she needed, she wanted a design that was transportable, practical, and trendy. It was necessary to her that her canine beds have been sturdy and cozy for canines of all sizes.
Her canine beds are comprised of a mould resistant cloth that’s stretched over 4 half tubular metal body. The stress between the material and the body offers help below the load of the canine and adjusts below shifting strain (so principally it adjustments in line with the place of your canine on the mattress).
The expertise of the material is exclusive to Dogtired. It stays cool in summer time and is simple to wash and dries rapidly. It’s tear resistant and really robust with glorious resistance to the outside. The tensions within the cloth stays uniformed that means no sagging will happen in any a part of the material. The quilt will not be indestructible however in contrast to a ladies’s stocking it received’t “run” the material could be pierced and torn however is not going to proceed to fray.
Goochie was given the prospect to highway check a mattress for a couple of hours from Dogtired. So one afternoon we took the mattress, a blanket and a freshly groomed Goochie to the park to take some images. Goochie is small and solely weighs 3kg and located it comparatively straightforward to leap on and out of bed. As a small canine proprietor I discover it laborious to discover a mattress sufficiently small for him, this mattress was an excellent measurement for Goochie. If in case you have any considerations about which measurement is greatest in your pooch get on contact with Megan.
This mattress was an excellent measurement, it had sufficient house for a blanket in addition to his toys which Goochie likes to have subsequent to him when he sleeps.
It’s good to know that I now know somebody regionally who cares a lot about canines that she has invested numerous her personal time (and cash) to create from scratch a really prime quality mattress in your greatest buddy, your canine.
