Just as its name says, this weighted dog blanket is simply pawfect! Made from the finest materials and tailored to suit the needs of all dog breeds, this weighted dog blanket provides deep touch pressure, simulating a comforting, snug embrace that will soothe your pet. The outer is durable and soft minky, a plush and thick fabric that feels luxurious against the skin, and the blanket itself is filled with glass beads for more even weight distribution. There are 3 sizes to choose from according to your pet’s breed: the small weighs 2 lbs (for dogs under 30 lbs), the medium weighs 4 lbs (for dogs under 70 lbs), and the large weighs 6 lbs (for dogs over 70 lbs).
