Cloud Nine Bed :) - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

mom of 3 dogs · 05-10-2011, 05:38 PM

i once looked into sending a dog carrier to someone in Canada. from the USPS, it goes by the dimentions of the box and the weight. i've recieved 2 of those cloud 9 beds, my girls love them, and they came squished into a small box so i think that could fit the requirements for the smaller dimentions for the lower postage, but not sure. otherwise, if the box is too big it is very expensive to ship.

That is insane!!! Wonder why it is that way. It really don't make a lot of sense.

Thanks for your nice comments.

. For the amount of fabric, you should probably ask Linda. She told me 3.5 yards but when I asked Joanne's to cut me 3.5, it ended up being too much fabric. I don't know if it was that the fabric I chose was wider or something like that.

For the Canadian poster, I agree about asking if you can pay extra for shipping. Or if that's too much, maybe try making your own with the same materials? I don't know. If at all possible, I'd try to pay extra and get it shipped. Looking at it, it seems like a lot of work to sew it nicely. But if you're good at sewing, maybe it can be a fun project.

Kona is still enjoying it a lot. And we're glad we were able to pick our own fabric since it matches our furniture nicely.

I've sold things on ebay and shipped to Canada with no problems...just special forms that have to be filled out by me before shipping at our USPS...also costs are higher for shipping to Canada.

Would it be possible for LJ to ship a bed to a YT'er or your family/friend who lives on the US/Canada border...then have that person drive it across the border to the nearest Canadian Post Office and have it shipped to you? Would probably have to be re-boxed and labeled before dropping it off with a Canadian Post Office. Would be an extra effort on someone but seems like that would work?...Just a thought

Do you cross the border regularly? Know anybody in Michigan (seeing you are in ON)?

mykkey · 05-28-2011, 09:54 AM

This is too cute! My problem would be that my Yorkie is a newbie and he is only 9wks old. He is currently scratching, biting and dragging his bed around the room. Are any of you experiencing this? Will this continue as he gets older? I would like to purchase a Cloud Nine Bed (of course custom) but am afraid he may damage this as well.

Ladyjane posted in another thread about shipping to Canada. It was additional charge if I remember correctly. Why don't you contact her and she could tell you the best way.

dands · 05-28-2011, 10:12 AM

@mykkey, Our yorkie did that when he was a puppy too. We just told him "no" and tapped him on the side and he would stop.

mykkey · 05-28-2011, 12:10 PM

Thanks Dands, I will try that when I can catch him!

Yes I will, thanks a mil guys, she just said to me that she doesnt ship to Canada but if I pay why not. I just want to see how much it would be....I have no friends in Michigan , just a cousin in Windsor. You guys are all so sweet for thinking of me and my invisible cloud nine bed LOL. Thanks so much , I'll let you know how I make out.

BabyGirl Rosie · 05-28-2011, 01:44 PM

Good luck! I know it is a pain to get it there but I promise your baby will love the bed. It will all be worth it!

nychelse · 07-25-2011, 09:06 PM

Hmm I'd love to maybe order one of these and ship her my fabric so its a little more custom to what Id like!

Ahis_Mama · 07-26-2011, 08:36 AM

And you can do that!

You need to pm Ladyjane.

dands · 07-31-2011, 10:41 AM

@ nychelse, that's what I did too. (Wanted it to match our home decor.) Ladyjane was really great about doing the custom job. Very quick turn-around.

Our dog still loves his bed

, and it comes out even fluffier every time you put it through the washer/dryer until he squashes it down again.
