Rest, recline, and gently sway - the bed that moves with your dog.
The Tavo Shell is a reclining pet lounger designed for dogs who deserve more than a flat cushion on the floor. Its distinctive shell-shaped aluminium frame pivots through three distinct recline positions - upright for alert, engaged pets, midway for a relaxed lean, and fully flat for deep sleep - so you can set the position that suits the moment.
A gentle swaying motion adds a layer of comfort that many anxious or elderly dogs find genuinely settling. The Shell rocks unassisted for up to two minutes before coming to rest; when you want it stationary, a simple lock keeps it perfectly still. There are no batteries, no motors, and no cords - just a smooth, natural movement driven by your dog's own weight.
The plush fleece seat cover drapes over the frame and removes in seconds for machine washing, keeping things fresh without any fuss. The fabric is naturally flame-resistant - not treated with chemical flame retardants - making it a cleaner choice for homes with curious dogs and young children. The aluminium frame provides robust support for dogs up to 59kg while remaining light enough to move between rooms with ease.

Frequently Asked Questions
| Question |
Answer |
| How does the swaying motion work? |
The Shell's frame is mounted on a pivot that allows a gentle rocking movement. Your dog's own weight initiates and sustains the motion - there are no batteries, motors, or cords involved. The movement continues for up to 2 minutes after your dog settles, then gradually comes to rest. |
| How do I lock it stationary? |
A simple locking mechanism on the frame holds the Shell in a fixed position. Engage it when you want the bed completely still - for example overnight or for dogs who prefer a steady surface. |
| Is this suitable for my older dog with joint problems? |
The Shell's low 27cm floor-to-bed height makes it easy to step in and out for dogs with stiff joints or reduced mobility. The reclined positions also allow dogs to lie fully flat without having to curl up, which many older dogs find more comfortable. |
| Can I wash the cover frequently? |
Yes - the fleece cover is designed to be removed and machine washed regularly. Wash on a gentle cycle in cold water and air dry. The cover's naturally flame-resistant fibres retain their properties through repeated washing. |
| What size dog is this suitable for? |
The Shell is designed for medium to large and extra-large breeds up to 59kg. The wide interior and fully flat recline position give even large dogs plenty of room to stretch out. |
| Is assembly required? |
No tools or assembly are required. The Shell arrives ready to use - simply place it in your chosen spot and adjust the recline position as needed. |
