We adore our canine companions like family members, so it is only natural that we want to provide them with the best of everything, including a comfortable bed on them to lay their heads. Studies have even revealed that women get a better night’s sleep when snuggled up close to one of their furry friends rather than any human companion!
For Chris and Mariesa Hughes, the prospect of sleeping comfortably was a major challenge when they welcomed eight rescue dogs into their home. After all, with such an abundance of pups vying for space in the same bed, there was only so much room for everyone – humans included. Thankfully, the couple managed to find a way to ensure that all family members could sleep soundly night after night.
After much thought and deliberation, they eventually devised an ingenious solution that enabled them to keep their beloved canine companions on the bed each night without being forced to remove any of them. This brilliant concept resulted in great satisfaction for both the dogs and their owners.
The couple from Clifton Park, New York, engaged the services of Mike Ford – a highly accomplished furniture maker and passionate dog lover – to manufacture the gigantic “mega-bed.” This extraordinary piece of work was an incredibly arduous task that took him six months to complete. It has two mattresses fused together, making it even more gargantuan.
This majestic bed has a king-size mattress on top and a full-size mattress positioned sideways beneath it. The headboard is an impressive six feet tall and adorned with cute, intricately hand-carved paw prints that add to its charm. For additional convenience, the bed includes side drawers for storage and built-in stairs to make it easier for older dogs to climb onto the plush sleeping surface.
The Hughes are the inspiring founders of “The Mr. Mo Project,” a charitable non-profit organization dedicated to finding loving homes for elderly and ill shelter dogs. The incredible compassion and kindness they show by taking on this enormous undertaking are truly remarkable. We applaud their tremendous efforts in providing these animals with a second chance at life. Everyone should be incredibly proud of them for their amazing work!
