Everyone, including your dog, appreciates a good night's sleep. Our wide range of beds, including orthopedic, outdoor, crate mats, cuddlers and loungers, make any canine catnap even better.
Like humans, your dog will enjoy a quality dog bed for all of the same reasons we do. Quality beds provide warmth, support, as well as a sense of security for your dog. Providing your pal with a bed of her own does far more for them than what most of us think. When a pet owner thinks about what products they will need for their dog, a quality dog bed should be near the top of their list!
A few benefits of providing a quality bed for your dog:
Insulation: Quality beds provide your dog with insulation from both the heat of the summer or the bitter cold of winter and fall. Beds such as the Snuggle Ball Bed, Bagel Bed and Cozy Cave provide warmth and comfort for your dog, especially in the winter months.
Personal Space: A bed allows them to have their own space, a place where they can curl up and relax.
Cushion/Support: Especially for older dogs, as well as dogs with other joint or bone problems. Quality beds such as the Thera Ortho Mattress and the Memory Foam Bed are specifically designed to relieve sore joints, bones, or other problems due to age, weight, or other joint related problems.
Shed & Dander Control: A dog bed can also aid in some allergy and clean-up relief, by providing you with a "main" area in which a majority of their shedding and/or dander is contained. Most beds are reversible which provides your dog with an additional laying surface, while increasing the time between washing. Pipe Dreams Bed and Indoor/Outdoor Beds are incredibly easy to clean; just wipe down with a wet cloth or hose down outside!
Injury Prevention: Using a dog bed in your home can help reduce the chances of "furniture hazards", such as jumping off the couch; which is often your pooch's favorite place to lie, especially when you are away.
Protection from the Elements: Providing a cozy, warm bed for a dog that spends most of her time outdoors is critical. The Indoor/Outdoor Bed is tough, water repellent and can be used inside or out. Easy to clean, this bed is also specifically treated to eliminate mold, fungus, or other outdoor hazards which may affect your dog.
How to measure your dog for a bed: Different dogs sleep in different positions, as humans do. The best way to make sure you are ordering the correct size bed is by measuring your dog in her favorite laying position and adding five inches. If you cannot measure your dog when she is laying down, you can also measure from the base of the neck to the base of the tail and then add 5 inches.
Spend some time determining which bed is best suited for your dog, keeping in mind that this will become a favorite resting place for your pooch! Unfortunately, low quality beds are easily torn and often first to break-down, never truly offering your dog the benefits of a higher quality bed. There are many good choices out there. Think of the bed as an investment, many high quality beds will last the lifetime of your dog, and so will their benefits!
