Consumers were smitten with the Kitty Meow cat cushion, inspiring the creation of Barkie by Studio Mango. Similar to its feline counterpart, this darling dog bed is molded to the shape of a puppy's head, complete with a big nose, ears, eyes and a gaping mouth that serves as access into the snug refuge.
PE rotation molded plastic forms the fetching face and provides a hollow inside, half open but covered with an overhanging upper snout. Within the Seahow-manufactured doghouse lies a plushy animal print cushion for the maximum comfort of your beloved canine. The loveable look of the Barkie by Studio Mango was adapted from the simplified shapes of cartoon critters and comes available in a bright red, grey, black or white.
