Description
All-Aluminium Kuranda Dog Bed – The Original Chew Proof Dog Bed!
Kuranda dog beds are designed to prevent dogs from getting a direct bite on the bed fabric. All frame edges are joined tightly, and fabric edges are hidden in between the bed frame, this restrains dogs from chewing at visible edges. Both fabric materials are non-breathable making them free of claw and teeth-catching holes. The off-the-floor design provides circulation underneath the bed during summer and lifts dogs off the cold hard floors during winter.

Unsure of the size your dog needs?
How to measure:
- Ensure your dog is well relaxed and all limbs are spread out.
- Measure your dog from nose to tail base for length.
- Measure your dog from top of back to bottom of paws for width.
- Add 10cm to your dog’s measurements – this gives your dog space to comfortably stretch within the bed frame.
- Compare the measurements to the bed INTERNAL dimensions.
Tip: When in doubt, order the next size up. Your dog will thank you.
Fabrics
Kuranda fabrics are completely sealed and non-breathable, making them waterproof and free of teeth or claw-catching holes. Breathable fabrics are not chew proof as they have holes that catch on teeth and claws.
Heavy Duty 40oz Vinyl
- Our strongest fabric – for destructive dogs and businesses.
- The 40oz vinyl fabric is made of vinyl-coated polyester with a smooth surface and has superior abrasion resistance and tear strength.
- A non-breathable finish, free of teeth and claw-catching holes.
- The same material used for rigid truck and trailer traps, and SUV covers.
- Does not sweat in heat, retain body heat, or warm in heated environments.
- The smooth coating is easy to brush, hose, or wipe down and does not harbour dirt and allergens from dogs’ fur or paws – best for dogs with inhalant allergies.
- Holds up to 114kg.
- Available for all Kuranda bed sizes.
- Fabric edges are wrapped tightly around a rod, then the seams are welded and heat-treated in place.
- The Kuranda 40oz vinyl fabric has been tested and compared against lower 20oz fabrics on the market and produces a higher performance. Fabrics under 40oz showed low tear strength and over-flex creating weakness and sag over time.
- Our Vinyl fabrics are 1356gsm (grams per square metre). The higher a fabric’s GSM, the thicker and more hard-wearing it is, e.g. Denim has a higher GSM than silk. Other vinyl dog bed fabrics only go as high as 900gsm.
- NOTE: Placing soft bedding, blankets, or bed pads on top of the vinyl may cause condensation between the vinyl and the soft bed topper. This is particularly shown in states that show dramatic temperature drops and depend on the outdoor temperature compared to indoors (mainly experienced in Victoria). If this applies to you, we highly recommend you use the Ballistic Nylon fabric.
Ballistic Nylon
- Ballistic Nylon is a tough high-denier, tightly bound fabric with great tension and abrasion resistance.
- A non-breathable finish, free of teeth and claw-catching holes.
- This canvas-like material is used for military body armour. It is also commonly used in work wear, luggage bags, hiking gear, and duffel bags.
- Best for dogs with sensitive skin, particularly dogs with contact dermatitis.
Does not sweat in heat, retain body heat, or warm in heated environments.- Senior dogs may prefer this fabric as it is softer and provides better traction than vinyl.
- Holds up to 45kg.
- Available in sizes up to XL.
- NOTE: Noise from a dog’s claws can be noisy against the ballistic nylon. Adding a Kuranda dog bed cover will reduce the sound.
Does not sweat in heat, retain body heat, or warm in heated environments.
Outdoor Mesh
- Perfect for the outdoors.
- The Outdoor Mesh (Textilene) fabric is a water-repellant open weave that allows pets to stay cool and dry.
- Allows water to pass through and is breathable, similar to outdoor furniture fabric.
- Does not sweat in heat, retain body heat, or warm in heated environments.
- Designed for outdoor use, Textilene fabric is UV-resistant and withstands exposure to the elements without fading or deteriorating.
- The fabric does not absorb odors, moisture, or stains, helping to maintain a fresh and clean bed for your pet.
- Holds up to 45kg.
- Available for Kuranda bed sizes up to XL.
- NOTE: Due to the open weave design, it is more vulnerable to dogs who may dig excessively or who may be more destructive. It is NOT covered under our 1 Year Chew Proof Warranty. For more destructive dogs, we recommend the 40oz Vinyl.

Bed Care
- For a basic clean, you can wipe the bed down with a damp cloth.
- For a proper clean, use mild warm soapy water and hose down with your average garden hose or pressure hose.
- To dry you can wipe them down or leave them upright to dry.
- The fabrics are non-absorbent and will dry as soon as you wipe them down.
- Aluminium beds must be rinsed after a disinfectant is applied. If not rinsed the water in the disinfectant solution evaporates leaving a high concentration of chemicals on the aluminium which will cause corrosion.
- PLEASE NOTE:
- Harsh chemicals and bleach solutions are not recommended on all Kuranda products.
- Using bleach, bore water, water with high salt or chlorine levels and locations with high salt levels in the air will cause the aluminium beds to break down/corrode.
- Using bleach and chloride solutions will cause discolouration of fabrics.
Warranty
- We guarantee the structural integrity of each of our beds for a period of one year from the original date of purchase of the bed.
- If a dog is able to damage any part of the frame or fabric beyond usability by chewing, we will send you replacement parts free of charge.
- Cosmetic damage and any damage caused by persistent scratching/digging is not covered under the 1 year Chew Proof Warranty.
- Warranty claims are limited to one free replacement per part per bed.
- A photo will be required to submit a warranty claim. All photos and claims need to be sent to info@therian.com.au – there is no need to send the damaged product back to us; the photo(s) will be sufficient.
- Not covered under the 1 year Chew Proof Warranty:
- Replacement fabrics and parts that are purchased separately
- Dog bed covers
- Outdoor Mesh Bed Fabric

Ang Christine –
I had a Kuranda bed for 8 years that survived two English Staffys and a Red nose x bull mastiff that ate a porcelain soap holder out of the bathroom wall. 100% the best investment I ever made for my fur kids worth every $$.
Lee A –
They are great beds. My huskies have a tendency to eat and chew everything, but they can’t make a dent in the Kuranda metal frames.
Ally B –
Awesome beds! The only beds my Labradors haven’t been able to destroy!
Shannon W –
Our Lab/Rottie, Chase, gives his aluminum Kuranda Bed 2 Paws Up! (and we love it too!) Tough, Comfy and Easy to Clean
Nat C –
Ours is still going strong after 8.5 years. Brilliant product. Can’t rate their customer service high enough. It’s been a pleasure dealing with them.
DOGS ETC – Dog Training by Kate Lloyd –
I am often asked what to do about dogs that destroy their bed. The Kuranda bed is my recommendation – no edges, no stuffing, very comfy, very durable. You can add a blanket once your dog is past the destructive phase. Also great for training “Stay”. I use these beds for my own dogs, and as a training aid in private lessons.
Redgum Kennels and Cattery –
Have had these beds in the kennels for 3 years now, not one has been destroyed or even damaged! Great quality and easily cleaned and hygienic!

The Goldies and a couple of their friends think the new beds are pretty good. Looks as though the beds are not only indestructible…..they are comfortable!

Animal Re-homing Charitable Trust –
This is the ONLY dog bed that has been able to withstand the chewing of multiple rescue dogs over a long period of time.
We imported several of them to New Zealand and have not been disappointed.

Have been trying out your beds for a few months now and I’m happy to say my most destructive bed chewers (Belgian Shepherds) have met their match, all beds are still intact! Very glad I discovered your beds .
Rae –
We’re pleased to advise that a) the dog beds remain in absolutely perfect condition at Wild2Free, even with a few 40kg sharp-clawed kangaroos on them. We use a pressure washer on them and it’s awesome! b) The canvas bed pads are fabulous – we simply scrub them down each morning and they’re as good as new, so no more blanket washing and replacing ripped blankets. We love our Kuranda “kangaroo” beds.
Emma –
Love these dog beds. Easy to clean and not too heavy to move plus puppy and big chewer proof. Have had the bed for our older dog for about 2.5years after going through a few of the cheaper types and recently got a second for the new puppy who has tried chewing on it a few times and is still standing with barely a scratch. Also great being elevated for our puppy who is blind making it easier to find than a mat.
Ashlee –
For a Staffy that chews every little thing in minutes, its so exciting to come home and see he has not chewed a single piece of his Kuranda bed in the 5 months he’s had it YAY!!
Lesley –
Corgis are the second most destructive breed I know (to Dobermann) and our hammock beds were constantly tatty (and smelly) having to be replaced at least monthly. Replaced the entire kennel with Kurandas 3 years ago and have not had one tatty or dirty bed since. A wonderful product
Kerrie Ruprecht –
Omg yes if you want to save yourself money and stress buy this bed
Leanne –
2 weeks down & we have success a bed that we can leave outside with Phoenix ALL DAY thanks so much to Gracie & the Kuranda team, worth absolutely every cent.
Sue –
We have 2 naughty daschunds and a labradoodle who is easily led by his naughty buddies. Got one of these about 18 months ago after every other option was destroyed. Remains completely intact and it is great for all 3 to snuggle up on in this cold snap. Highly recommend ??
Leanne –
Our little princess chews EVERYTHING and after looking around for a Staffy Proof Bed Solution we chatted with Grace to choose the best size and material for Phoenix. We purchased and had it shipped across to SA . 5 star review we are so happy with the product and the incredible service we have received – thanks so very much.
Elle –
These are the only dog beds we buy as they are amstaff proof! They have been chewed, dug on, and still look brand new 2 years later.
Shweta –
These are great the best cot bed ever????saved my life and money when my lab pup was in his chewing phase ????? thanks Kuranda so much.
Natalie –
We purchased this bed before our puppy came home, and after 8.5 years, it is still in perfect condition. We cannot rate this product high enough and would recommend this product to everyone.
Purchased for a Rhodesian Ridgeback.
Michael –
I just wanted to say we bought a Kuranda dog bed over 11 years ago and it’s still going strong.. it has survived 2 labradors.. such a great product!!
ella (verified owner) –
These beds are the absolute best. Very easy to clean, don’t smell. My dog absolutely love them. I did buy the canvas cover to go on top and then a cheap blanket and it’s amazing. They do however sweat between the fabric and the canvas pad but I just put a towel between and once a week wash the towel. I got the heavy duty vinyl cover which is breathable if you had no covers on top of them but my dog are abit special ?
Brian –
We tried several different hammock style dog beds for our young German Shepherd and he managed to successfully destroy them all. (Covers ripped, frames damaged from physically throwing them around).
We finally found the all aluminum Kuranda bed and after 12 months plus, despite some teeth marks/scaring on the aluminum it is still intact and regularly used,(the cover has no damage, the design prevents him from getting his teeth into it and his occasionally ‘digging’ into it has not caused damage. Whilst expensive in comparison with the other beds, certainly it would have been far more economic to purchase the Kuranda bed initially.
The only disappointment is that we purchased the XL size based upon the merchant ‘s recommendation and have found that the XXL would have been far more suitable.
