ProFleece VetBed is a common material used in Europe for all kinds of pets! We started importing this material in 2018 and quickly found it is hard to beat! Knitted from a durable chew-resistant yarn; this material is also one of the densest materials available at 1250 grams/m2. This VetBed is MUCH thicker than anything you will find in the big box-stores! With a pile length of over 1" means your pet will stay high and dry! Made from 100% polyester, the vet bedding is hygienic, non-irritant, and non-allergenic. You will not find anything this soft, comfortable and durable anywhere else! In addition to being soft and functional it can be rolled up for storage or transportation and will last for many years.
The rubber backing keeps the material in place - even on slippery surfaces!

ProFleece VetBed can be easily cut to fit your exact needs! The material will not unravel after it has been cut. Buy a piece that fits your needs - or buy a roll and cut your own! Contact us for sizes not listed.
It is SUPER easy to clean! It is machine washable up to 194ºF. Quick drying, though it can be tumble-dried on a cool setting in the dryer. However, DO NOT use fabric softener as the build-up of fabric softener on the fleece blocks moisture from going through, and prevents the fleece from doing it's job. The fleece will not shrink - although sometimes the pile may mat or bunch a little.
Frequently asked Questions: ProFleece VetBed
ProFleece VetBed is a fabric material originally designed in Europe. It was created as a way to keep pets comfortable and warm.
The material is incredibly easy to clean! Simply throw it in the washing-machine and tumble dry! If you get the non-slip ProFleece(with the rubber back) we recommend using LOW heat for the dry. We also recommend if you are using the ProFleece for whelping or with animals with sensitive skin to NOT use detergent (as a residue can be left behind). Another option is to add a second rinse cycle.
The material is exactly the same... We just made our thicker! The extra thickness keeps the dogs drier and warmer. We also added a non-slip rubber backing to keep the material in-place while in your whelping bed.
Not exactly. The material is synthetic, so it is not really absorbing the fluids - but the design of the material causes the water to wick away from the animal until it can air-dry.
Absolutely! We recommend using a utility or carpet knife. You only need to cut through the back fabric part. You may get a little fluff that comes loose - but the material will not continue to fray!
While there is no such thing as a soft fabric that a dog cannot chew, we found most dogs do not chew the material. This does not mean that some dogs will not try! One thing we've learned is that most dogs start chewing the corners of the material first. By setting your whelping box up to protect the corners, the potential for chewing is greatly reduced.
Yes! It is a great bedding material for rabbits, guinea pigs and more! It will not get pushed out of the cage like pellets or other bedding material and does not have the dust problem.
Yes! It is made from synthetic polyester, so you do not have to worry about allergies. It is warm and yet soft for the puppies. It was originally developed to mimic the mother dogs' fur coat that the puppies would naturally be in contact with.
