Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

Posh Pet Beds by Rafael Muina

Your dog: the one creature on Earth who doesn’t mind waking up to your morning breath.

Though you’d score someone floss-worthy a lot quicker if Fido wasn’t snoozing in your bed. Every. Single. Night.

Rafael Muina could leave you both satisfied and panting soon enough. He designs dog beds based on your master suite (from Laura Ashley frills to Z Gallerie mod) or your pooch’s personality.

Beds are carved from hardwoods (to discourage chewing) and fitted with high-density mattresses and covers (waterproof optional). Fido’s initials are carved in wood and glued onto the headboard, and the bed is topped with a comfy blanket. Muina can customize beds using the details about your pet (weight, breed, favorite activities) you give him by phone. Or, if you want to feel him out in person, schedule a meet-and-greet (Fido can be so fussy).

With any luck, your pup will soon be sleeping solo.

And you won’t be left howling at the moon.
