Poppy and Yogi - the dachshunds behind Pogi Pod

Our Founders

Built by two dog parents who were sick of being let down.

We are a young Aussie couple with two miniature dachshunds Poppy & Yogi (@PoppyandYogi) who spent years buying dog beds that went flat, fell apart, or were never even used. Dachshunds are hardwired to burrow, but nothing on the market was built for it. So we built it ourselves.

Poppy + Yogi = Pogi

Not all dog beds are created equal.

Here's why burrowing breeds need more than orthopaedic foam.

Pogi Pod

The Pogi Pod

Cave burrow bed — built for instinct

✓
Soft floppy hood
Collapses like a blanket — dogs burrow under it naturally
✓
Enclosed den shape
Triggers the nesting instinct — dogs actually settle
✓
Blended memory foam
50/50 foam stays lofted and supportive long term
✓
Hood zips off completely
Two beds in one — open or enclosed
✓
Machine washable inner
Unzips from the base — easy clean
✓
Non-slip base
Stays put on timber, tile and vinyl
Standard orthopaedic bed

Regular dog bed

Flat foam — ignores instinct

✕
No hood or cover
Open top — burrowing breeds feel exposed
✕
Flat open surface
Ignores the burrowing instinct entirely
✕
Goes flat quickly
Single density foam compresses after weeks
✕
One configuration only
Flat and open — always
✕
Hard to wash properly
One piece — wash the whole thing or don't bother
✕
Slides on hard floors
No grip — moves every time your dog gets in

Orthopaedic foam supports joints — but it doesn't address why burrowing breeds can't settle. The Pogi Pod does both.
