Tutorial VIDEO
Firstly SAW the pallet in half and again in half.
Then MEASURE the depth of the pet bed. It’s 17.3 in and NEED 6 pcs slats in this size.
After that you NEED 1 more stick from the rest of the first halved pallet – it’s 24.8 in long – and 1 cube. And the last slat you need is a 13.7 in long for the front.
The next step is creating the entry of the bed - SAW a 8.6 in wide gap by the right side.
SAND the surface completely with a 100 grit paper. You can use a rotary tool by the edge and the hard approachable space.
BRUSH the dust off and can start to STAIN.
After the surface dries JOIN the parts with nails.
To your pet bed become more impressive, PAINT little paws on it with white metal paint.
Don't forget to check the tutorial video too!!! :)

Great bed, only I don’t have time to make it

I bought a house like this, and in my opinion, it was the most expensive thing that I bought in my entire life for a dog that he didn't even use, and it hurt the most. It would be logical to buy more toys like this one https://www.doggietoys.deals/product/football-soccer-tennis-ball-set/. At least I see how he played with this one, and it calms me that I didn't spend money on anything. Anyway, don't waste time and money if you know that your dog wouldn't spend their time on this bad.
