MAXIMUS did the same thing with the "bed". He would drag it around and shake it. He's been happy with his blankets. I remember buying a twin size comforter at Target, when I was still working there. My friends thought I was nuts for buying "my dog" a comforter. It's actually alot less than alot of the beds. And it's the right size. He makes it how he wants. Good luck with the separation of beds. Sometimes I still can't get in my own bed, because Kevin and MAXIMUS take up the whole thing.
