Have an older dog? First thing's first—manage its diet. Then give Dog a place to place to rest.

Older dogs benefit from frequent rest, whether it’s a timeout from training or a break during the hunt. Help your senior partner get the most of his downtime by giving him a comfortable place to lie.

Besides providing a generous 40x26-inch area of 2-inch-thick padding, the Browning Mat Pet Bed also incorporates a foil lining that reflects a dog’s body heat to keep him warm on chilly days. The mat’s base is waterproof, and the outer shell cleans up easily. A grommet permits anchoring the mat to the ground or a truck bed. The mat rolls up for transport. Browning also offers a smaller Crate Mat in two sizes with many of the same features. Mat Pet Bed $79.99; Crate Mat $39.99-$49.99.
