Selecting a Bed For Your Dog

All-Community

If you’re looking for a comfy and cozy bed for your pup, then you’ve come to the right place. It’s important for dogs to have their own beds because most tend to sleep for over half the day! Dogs typically prefer having a spot where they feel comfortable, safe, and secure. There are quite a few options when it comes to selecting a dog bed, so here are some of the major factors to consider before selecting a bed that’s the right fit for your dog:

 

  • Size of the bed: You want to select a bed that’s big enough for your dog to sprawl and roll around if they want to. You can determine the best size for your doggy based on their weight. This size guide is helpful for you to determine the optimal bed size. 

 

  • Material of the bed: Dog beds can be made from a variety of materials, each with their own pros and cons. For example, faux fur is a very soft material but can be difficult to clean. Polyester beds are usually inexpensive, yet warm and soft enough to feel comfortable. Suede options feel nice and luxurious but are also difficult to clean. Check out this guide on the various materials and fabrics that can be used for dog beds. 

 

  • Purpose of the bed: Another important consideration to keep in mind is the purpose of the bed. Will it be your dog’s primary bed? If so, you may want to consider a bed that’s large enough for your dog to roll around in, and comfortable enough that they can sleep on it for extended periods of time. If the bed will be in the car then you may want to consider a slightly smaller option to ensure the bed will fit in your car. And if the bed is going outside, then you will want to consider a sturdier bed that can withstand outdoor weather conditions.
