Pendleton National Park Dog Bed

Pendleton Woolen Mills is a textile company that is truly American in nature. Famous for its blankets and throws, the patterns reflect the original founding of the company with Native American inspired design polished by a Brit's weaver expertise. And true to the nature of the state of origin, Oregon, wool is meant to keep its owner warm. It's a company that has stayed true to its founding.

In addition to supporting its original heritage and artists by backing the Indian Arts & Crafts Act, Pendleton is also a proud supporter of the National Parks with a line of products dedicated to the foundation. One of which has become a recent addition to our household, the National Park dog bed, which comes in Acadia, Crater Lake, Glacier Park, Grand Canyon, and Rainier.
