Owners of an older dog, or a dog that loves long naps, often choose it. The sand colour also blends in calmly with your furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy choose an orthopaedic dog bed?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA good bed is about more than just lying somewhere soft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn average, dogs sleep around 12 to 14 hours a day. That is more than half of their life. So what your dog lies on really matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA standard bed with loose filling often sinks after a while. Your dog then lies almost on the floor. An orthopaedic dog bed keeps its shape better and spreads the pressure across the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat do foam rubber flakes actually do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lying area of the Liano is filled with small foam rubber flakes. These flakes move a little with your dog's position. This creates a spot that shapes itself to the hips, shoulders and back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen your dog lies curled up, the flakes fill the gaps. When he stretches out, the foam spreads his weight over a larger area. It feels firm but still comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and comfort of the Liano\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the Liano, Trixie, the German brand from Tarp, chose a fabric you know from furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe outside is made of soft upholstery fabric. The cover is made of polyester. Polyester is strong, keeps its colour well and feels pleasant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA fixed cushion that stays in place\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cushion is fixed into the bed. So your dog cannot push it out when he turns or scratches. That is great for dogs that walk a few circles before they lie down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is easy for you too. You do not have to keep putting the cushion back. As a result, the bed always looks neat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRaised edges for the head\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRaised edges run all around the lying area. Many dogs love to rest their head on them. Other dogs lean their back against them and feel safe and snug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich dogs is the Liano suitable for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Liano suits many dogs, but some dogs benefit from it even more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThink of a senior dog that gets up a bit more stiffly. Or a large dog that puts a lot of weight on his joints. The flakes support the body and spread the pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, an orthopaedic bed does not replace advice from your vet. Does your dog have joint problems? Then always talk to your vet first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePuppy, adult or senior?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA puppy mainly needs a safe and familiar place. An adult dog needs a bed that lasts a long time. A senior dog needs support and a soft, stable surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Liano offers all three. One tip: if your puppy chews a lot, keep an eye on him. A bed is not a chew toy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich dog bed size should you choose?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Trixie Vital Liano comes in three sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60 x 50 cm: for small dogs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80 x 65 cm: for medium dogs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 x 80 cm: for large dogs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do you measure your dog?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure from nose to the base of the tail and add 15 to 25 cm. Do this while your dog is standing or lying stretched out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis gives your dog room to stretch out. Does he often lie with his head on the edge? Then the bed can be a little smaller. Does he like to lie flat on his side? Then go one size up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eExamples per size\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 60 x 50 cm dog bed often suits a Jack Russell, Shih Tzu or French Bulldog. The 80 x 65 cm size is great for a Beagle, Cocker Spaniel or Border Collie. Choose the largest size of 100 x 80 cm for a Labrador, Golden Retriever or German Shepherd.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are just examples. Every dog is different, so always measure first. That way you know the size is right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA bed that suits your interior\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dog bed often sits in the middle of the living room, so its looks matter too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Liano is part of the Trixie HOME Edition. This range is made to blend in calmly with your home. The sand colour goes well with wood, linen, beige and light shades of grey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo you prefer a slightly darker shade? The Liano also comes in taupe. Still, many owners choose sand, because the colour feels light and timeless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe best place in your home\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePut the bed in a quiet spot where your dog can still see you. Avoid draughts near a door or window. It is best not to place the bed right on top of warm underfloor heating, because your dog likes to choose between warm and cool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe non slip base is handy on laminate, parquet or tiles. The bed then stays in place when your dog jumps in. That gives peace of mind and stops him from slipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note: the Liano is an indoor bed. It is not meant for the garden or a damp room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and washing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA washable dog bed stays fresh, and the Liano makes that easy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cushion cover is removable. Always follow the care label in the bed when washing. Then let the cover dry fully before you put it back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do you remove hair from the bed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse a lint roller or a rubber glove. First remove the loose hairs with it. Then vacuum the bed briefly with a soft brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeally, do this once a week. That way, hairs do not get stuck deep in the upholstery fabric. The bed also stays fresh for longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does the bed last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat depends on your dog and on how you care for it. A calm dog can often use a good bed for years. Shake the cushion now and then, so the flakes spread out evenly again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications of the Trixie Vital Liano\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelow you will find all the facts in one place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTrixie\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel and range\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLiano, Trixie Vital, HOME Edition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRectangular, with raised edges\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eColour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSand (also in taupe)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCover material\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSoft upholstery fabric, polyester\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFilling\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFoam rubber flakes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCushion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixed, built in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAvailable sizes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60 x 50 cm, 80 x 65 cm, 100 x 80 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWashing instructions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRemovable cushion cover, follow the care label\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNon slip\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes, non slip base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSuitable for\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSmall to large dogs, indoors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe benefits at a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is what makes the Liano a smart choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoam rubber flakes that adapt to your dog's position\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFixed cushion that does not slide away\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon slip base for smooth floors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft upholstery fabric in a calm sand colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemovable cushion cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChoose rest and support\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour dog spends a large part of the day in his bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the Trixie Liano dog bed, you give him a firm and comfortable place.

The foam rubber flake filling adapts to your dog's position. This way, the bed spreads the pressure across the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the cover go in the washing machine?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cushion cover is removable, so you wash it separately from the bed. Follow the care label for the temperature and programme. Then let the cover dry fully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the bed slide on a smooth floor?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, the Liano has a non slip base. This helps it stay in place on laminate, parquet or tiles. It gives your dog more confidence when he steps in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich size suits my Labrador?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 100 x 80 cm size often suits a Labrador. Still, always measure your dog from nose to the base of the tail. Then add 15 to 25 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the Liano suitable for an older dog?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, many people choose the Liano for older dogs. The flakes support the body and the edges support the head. If your dog has joint problems, also ask your vet for advice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the Liano be used outdoors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, the Liano is an indoor bed. The upholstery fabric is not made for rain or damp.
