BED FOR PET ANIMALS

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention disclosed herein generally relates to beds for pet animals. More particularly, the present invention relates to a bed for pet animals, for example, dogs, configured to provide a comfortable and secure enclosure for pet animals, maintain a right combination with the interior view of the house, and simply manufacture in different sizes while providing durability, stylish design, and comfort for the pet animals.

BACKGROUND Pet beds are designed to be used by domestic pets such as dogs and cats. Specifically, the pet bed having a cushion and slipcover installed over a frame assembly providing cushion support, a suspension system for comfort, elevation preferred by pets, and the novel method of making the same. The slipcover converts the apparatus to an aesthetically pleasing article of furniture, suitable for any household environment. Additionally, the slipcover can be easily removed and cleaned.

Currently, numerous designs for pet beds exist in the market, but they typically sacrifice comfort for the animals and cleanliness. Most pet beds are easily destroyed by the pet animals since they are often made from non-durable materials and offer numerous projections which the pet animals may easily chew. Furthermore, the pet beds are look unpleasant and hideous when keep in a room having interior furniture.

A prior art, US 2011/0239946 Al of DAVE, discloses a method for fabricating pet beds that are uniform in shape that is cost effective and rapidly completed. A plug is wrapped in several layers of foam or padding. Each layer of foam is coupled to each other, and the plug is not coupled to any of the foam layers itself. After the foam has been properly placed, the plug is removed and a spring set that is substantially shaped like the

, DK 180735 B1 plug is inserted into its place.

The foam and spring set are then enveloped within a mattress cover.

However, above-mentioned prior art fails to disclose a pet bed designed with: a wooden slatted base, and the plurality of springs are securely disposed on the wooden slatted base, a set of foams is disposed on the plurality of springs and in that the pet bed having at least four legs extending downwardly from the wooden slatted base, thereby the four legs are configured to support the bed above the ground.

In the light of above-mentioned problems, there is a need for a bed for pet animals, for example, dogs, configured to provide a comfortable and secure enclosure for pet animals and in addition, could be durable, compactly stored and displayed in a fully assembled configuration.

Further, there is also a need for a bed for pet animals to maintain a right combination with the interior decor of the house and simply manufacture in different sizes while providing comfort, durability, and stylish design.
