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.

Ripstop Ballistic
Bed Fabric

Densely-woven (1200D) heavy duty rip-stop ballistic fabric resists punctures and tears from digging and scratching. 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. A DWR coating and a waterproof backing keep moisture and odors at bay. 

Elevated Bed
Premium Comfort

This lightweight but sturdy bed can hold up to 250 lbs, ensuring that your pup never feels the floor. The padded sling is filled to a 1.5” thickness with recycled polyester fiberfill for extra softness and insulation, and will conform to your dog’s body to eliminate pressure points and provide orthopedic-style support.

If you need more room in your crate, the legs can be removed and the cushioned pad will still provide plenty of comfort.

Make it Unique with
Heat-Transfer Vinyl

Show off your pup's personality with our custom heat-transfer vinyl text! You can add your dog's name in one of six bold colors (handy for keeping track of pads in a multi-dog household) or a short phrase just for fun. Available for our obsidian black, blue quartz, and sandstone color pads.

Please note that personalized crate pads can't be exchanged or returned, so make sure to double check your sizing before placing your order!

Personalization is not scratch- or chew-resistant.

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.

For the bed padding, we use certified-safe recycled polyester fiberfill produced from discarded water bottles. Over the last five years we’ve kept more than four million plastic bottles out of landfills by upcycling them into our bed filling.

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 bed sling is made from 1200D ripstop ballistic polyester fabric, and the inner padding is 100% polyester fiberfill batting. The ripstop fabric has both a PU backing to make it water-resistant and a DWR coating to repel water. Each leg has a rubber foot cap to keep the bed from sliding.

The Chew Proof Armored™ Padded Elevated Dog Crate Bed is the only elevated bed that has a padded sling. It gives your dog a bit of extra comfort and helps keep them warm in the winter months, but it won’t work as well for cooling as the non-padded ripstop or mesh elevated beds.

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. Most soaps and detergents are fine, but avoid using bleach—it can damage the frame.

For a more thorough cleaning, you can disassemble the bed with a 4.5 mm allen wrench and machine wash the center pad. Wash with cold water on delicate and machine dry on low heat until it is fully dried out, then replace on frame.

Since the center of this bed is padded for comfort, it can be used with or without legs. No tools are required to remove the legs—just twist by hand until loose. If you’d like to purchase a set of rubber plugs to fill in the corner sockets, simply contact our customer care team for further assistance.

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.

Yes, you can! This bed can be personalized with heat-transfer vinyl text.

To add it, just select the option to add personalization, select the vinyl color and font, and make sure to type in what you want to have personalized. Personalization is case-sensitive and will appear exactly as typed.

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.

We do! You can find our replacement pads sold separately here.

    Dog Gone Great!

    Haven’t had the bed long, and my <1yo Treeing Walker Coonhound/Beagle/Catahoula mix is essentially a wood chipper with 4-wheel drive, so time will be the real test. However, this bed is definitely the sturdiest one I’ve seen and handled of all of the dog beds and mats I’ve been through over the years.

    The ripstop fabric seems very tough and durable, without sacrificing comfort for my boy! It fits inside my dog crate as described in the unit’s specs; however I had to finagle it in by opening side panels that don’t normally fold outward as far as the collapsible crate design goes. But hey, I can get it in and out… and I’m not reviewing my old dog crate here.

    I’m very impressed at first sight and over the past week of use. The aluminum framing to create a stretched surface that the dog can’t bend over or get his mouth around is a big plus.

    These beds aren’t cheap, but I’ve found determined dogs like mine make mincemeat out of the cheaper alternatives in short time.

    If this stands up over the next several months, as it appears it will, K9 Ballistics has a new customer for life! Thank you K9B for your innovative design and fast, reasonable shipping!

    I’d give it 4.8 stars if I could. The 4 ⭐️ is simply a reserved rating due to not enough time passing yet to test its durability, as well as the need to bend my dog crate to get the bed in/out. The profile height is just a bit tall on the framing to be able to slide in and out of the 1” crate floor access door on the bottom front…

    HIGHLY recommend!

    My tiny twister tornadoes (mini aussies) went through 8 or so beds in a six month window. Lots of wasted money. Then I ran across these beds….the tornadoes have been tamed! They cannot, not from lack of trying, cannot tear this bed up. Wish I would have found this sooner, could have saved lots of many and shredded beds for the last six months.

    Excellent Products!

    Having a very aggressive chewer / 17-month old Golden Retriever, over the past several months, we have purchased two of K9's elevated dog beds and a chew proof armored crate pad. They are each remarkable in their durability, ease of maintaining and ability to withstand our dog's focused attempts to tear them up. We are so pleased that we're ordering an additional armored crate pad today. 5-Stars for sure!!

    Excellent bed! My dog is a chewer and she hasn’t torn apart this bed. Brilliant design with the metal frame.
