Sorry guys but I'm with moosmom on this one. If I gave beds to a shelter so the strays would have a soft spot to lay on I would like to see the beds stay there even if the dogs were adopted out. If I adopted a dog I really wouldn't want the bed from the shelter, you never know what you can bring home from there. And if I adopted a dog I would probably either already have a bed for the newcomer or I would want to buy my own. A new owner has the money to buy a bed for a pet but once the shelter gives the few beds they do have to the adopters the dogs are again left to sleep on the concrete. I would have done the same as Moosmom did in the same case scenario.
Giving a toy to go with the dog is a different story as the dog has become attached to that toy and gets comfort from it.
