Chew Proof
Aluminum Frame

Our Chew Proof Armored™ beds feature a 100% aluminum frame that covers every edge and corner, protecting these vulnerable spots from even the most destructive chewer. The frame also pulls the center fabric tight, leaving your dog with no wrinkles or bunched up material to gather between their teeth.

This bed is sized to fit most standard wire crates and is backed by our 120 Day Chew Proof Warranty.

Virtually Indestructible
Vinyl Sling

This is our toughest material yet! Heavy-duty, double-coated vinyl material resists punctures and tears from even the heaviest chewing, scratching, and digging. It has a smooth, slick texture that fur and dirt won’t stick to, allowing you to brush or wipe most messes off with ease. The vinyl is completely impermeable to water, making this bed fully waterproof.

Elevated Comfort
Maximum Support

This lightweight but sturdy bed can hold up to 250 lbs, ensuring that your pup never feels the floor. The vinyl sling will conform to your dog’s body like a hammock, eliminating pressure points and providing orthopedic-style support. Elevating the bed also allows air to freely circulate beneath it and keep your pup cool in the summer, but keep this bed in the shade—the vinyl can get hot under direct sunlight.

Responsible & Sustainable
For People, Pets, & Planet

The frame for our armored beds is made completely from aluminum, including the powder-coated corners. Aluminum is fully and infinitely recyclable and one of the only materials that takes less energy to recycle than it does to produce new material.

We’ve also engineered our vinyl to be extremely durable, so this bed will far outlast cheap imitations. That means fewer bed purchases for you, less fuel and energy spent on shipping and manufacturing, and less waste that ends up in a landfill.

Frequently Asked Questions

This bed will arrive as a pre-assembled frame and a set of four legs. Simply insert the legs into each corner socket and twist by hand until tight and the bed is ready for use.

The frame and legs are made from 100% aluminum, including the corners (which are simply powder-coated black). The vinyl bed sling is made from PVC. Each leg has a rubber foot cap to keep the bed from sliding.

The Chew Proof Armored™ Vinyl Elevated Dog Bed is the only one of our beds to use vinyl as the bed sling material. The vinyl also happens to be stronger than even our ripstop ballistic fabric, which means this is the absolute strongest bed that we make. The vinyl is the only material that is considered both chew proof and dig proof, and it also makes this the only fully waterproof bed that we have. 

As per the 120 Day Chew Proof Warranty, we will replace the entire armored bed once free of charge if your dog damages it within the first 120 days of receipt. Store credit for the value of the bed will be provided instead if a replacement is not desired or available.

For more details or to submit a claim, please visit our warranty page.

Simply wipe the bed down with a damp cloth or scrub away any stubborn spots with soap and warm water. You can also take it outside and hose it down or pressure wash it for a thorough cleaning. Most soaps and detergents are fine, but avoid using bleach—it can damage the frame.

Since this bed has no padding and instead cradles your dog to provide support, it needs to be raised up about three inches minimum from the ground in order to work effectively (bigger, heavier dogs will need more clearance, so larger beds stand taller). While the legs can be removed from the frame, your dog will essentially be on the floor without them and won’t find the bed very comfortable at all.

First, remove the plastic pan or tray from the bottom of the crate. Then slide the bed through the crate door at a diagonal before you add the legs. Once it’s in the crate, reach in and add a leg to each corner socket, twisting by hand until tight. Level the bed out and lower it until the feet touch the floor and it is good to go.

Unfortunately, it isn’t possible to personalize this particular bed. We use heat-transfer vinyl lettering to personalize the elevated beds, and this application method is not compatible with the vinyl sling. For a personalizable elevated bed, check out our Chew Proof Armored Ripstop Elevated Dog Bed or Chew Proof Armored Padded Elevated Dog Crate Bed.

For best results, check out our size guide. This bed is designed to fit standard wire crates but crate dimensions can vary slightly by manufacturer, so make sure to compare the actual dimensions of your crate against those for the bed size you’re interested in. The dimensions shown for our beds are exact, and due to their rigid frames these beds will not fit in spaces smaller than their size.

For use outside a crate, measure your dog from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail and use that as the minimum length the bed needs to be for your dog to lie on it comfortably. Remember that the frame takes up an inch of space from each side, so the sleeping area is 2" smaller in each dimension from the total bed size.

    Malinois sturdy!

    The vinyl is the only ballistic bed that lasts for my Malinois. They will pull the rubber stops on the feet but other that it’s strong. The mesh or any other cover won’t last. Been there! Still the only bed I’d buy

    Vinyl for Scratch & Diggers 🤞

    Love all of the K9 Ballistics products we have used in the past 9 years!

    Vinyl cot is new for us, (I guess I missed that option) however, so far Miss 🩵 Pepper has not made a slash in it 😁🤩.

    The vinyl is protected by the warranty and it is fairly new so we will have to check back in ! ☺️

    So far my dog likes it

    Our dog likes sleeping on it and she has not found a way to chew it up, which is what we hoped for!

    I'm never disappointed!

    Over the years, I have purchased both vinyl and ripstop elevated beds.

    They are holding up to all my rough dogs of all sizes.

    We foster many.

    I also purchased the chew toy bundle which the dogs haven't destroyed yet.

    I also recently purchased one of each size harnesses with custom print saying ADOPT ME.

    As you can see in the pic they look fantastic and I'm pleased that the lining doesn't trap as much hair as other types like knit or similar linings.

    The smoother the lining, the less shedded hair gets trapped that will poke the skin of dogs with missing or short/tight/thin fur/hair.

    ALL items I've purchased are of GREAT QUALITY.

    Highly recommend!!!
