This is the smallest of the three canopy beds, sized for dogs up to 20kg, and the one that actually fits on a normal patio or balcony without dominating it. The principle is the same across the range: a taut mesh sling raised 18cm off the ground so air moves underneath as well as over, which is how a dog sheds heat properly rather than lying on a surface that reflects it back.

The canopy is water- and UV-resistant, giving shade that stays effective through more than one summer rather than fading and going brittle. That combination — shade above, airflow below — is what lets a bed live outdoors permanently. The steel frame does not flex, the mesh unclips for washing, and the whole thing folds into the supplied bag for the car, a caravan or a campsite.

• Bed 76cm long x 61cm wide, 18cm off the ground
• Overall 69.5cm high with the canopy fitted
• Washable breathable mesh on a steel frame
• Water- and UV-resistant canopy
• Travel bag included; easy assembly
• Suits dogs to 20kg and under 50cm in body length

Pick the size by body length. The 50cm limit here is measured along the spine while standing, and it is the figure that decides fit — a dog can be well within 20kg and still too long. If yours is longer, take the 91cm or 106cm version.

Who it's for: Small and medium dogs, terriers, spaniels and French bulldogs who feel the heat, and gardens or balconies where a large frame simply will not fit.
