Dublin is hinting that he wants a dog bed for Christmas.
I had my laundry neatly folded in an IKEA bag waiting to get put in a drawer and Dublin decided that he really liked the bold yet sleek Scandinavian design and made an ad hoc dog bed for himself. Border Collies sure are clever; he actually used his nose to push up the lip once he got in to provide more support.
I guess I’ll have to get him a legit dog bed of his own for Christmas, but sadly it doesn’t look like IKEA makes dog beds and I don’t think anyone who does will sell me one for the 59 cents that the IKEA tote bag cost.

Maybe you could just paste an IKEA logo on an ordinary bed. He can’t be THAT smart.

Hahaha! What a smart puppy. He’s giving you a look like “Have you figured it out yet, Dad?”
Kyuss used to have such nice beds… but he destroys them. He’s a blanket sucker and often likes to “kill” his blankets before suckling.
I went through 3 really nice beds before finally giving up. He now sleeps on a rug bought at Walmart for $30 LOL

My Parson Russell Terrier puppies jumped into my laundry basket….full of dirty clothes!
Can I post the photos?
Here is the photo of three of my puppies sitting in the laundry basket on top of my dirty bed clothes.

Oh my gosh, I think I just got diabetes from the sweetness. That’s a great photo, and those puppies are decidedly cute.
Would that technically be an Ikea Sleeping Bag?
Hahaahahahahaha
What a great shot…he’s got that “What are you looking at?” look. We’re breaking down and getting Ned a bed this year as well. He really gets a kick out of rolling in clean laundry…drives my wife crazy..and then she laughs her head off.

Ikea does make dog beds. Unfortunately they don’t cost 59 cents.
