Yes to a dog bed
no to a toy box

I have a 7 beds in my house for Lola and she uses them all, plus a snuggle sack. beds are a must because it gives the Lola her own place when I go room to room, LOL I can't be lying down all the time. Lola prefers the donut style with the large plush sides that surround her, she likes leaning her chin or head on it. I have bought several at HomeGoods, TJMax or Marshals, also from Big Lots, Wallmart and Wallgreens. Never from a pet store to me those are rip off and not as nice as Homegoods. At night her favorite donut bed gets placed on our bed at the bottom between my husband and I, she starts out near us and then within about 10 min she goes to the end of the bed and climbs in and sleeps in it without moving all night long. I notice that since we started doing that she is much happier since she is near us but is protected in her own space.

I also have two beds for her at my moms, when I would visit I could see Lola was pacing looking for a bed, as soon as I bought one she ran and just about dove in she was so happy, it was like she was saying, ohhh OK this is my place now. I took one of the beds to my sisters house, besides her yorkie she has a cat and one bed which is clearly the yorkie's, before Lola knew what happened the cat claimed the bed as hers, after my sister had been saying, "the cat would never sleep in a bed" so I went to Wallmart and got a few more cheap beds for my sister and mom.

I bought a few cute storage boxes to use for toys, but after a week they had to come up, Lola is a toy crazed dog and not one would stay in the box, she would be upside down in the box, butt in the air getting every single toy out and all over the place, she would be huffing and puffing and panting cause she could not pace herself, so now I rotate a few different toys each day.

I have 4 large rolling draws for her clothes, and part of a cupboard, but I do not have space for an amoire.
