Dog Beds: Everything Pet Parents Need To Know

Dog beds can be simple or fancy, expensive or homemade, and everything in between. Even if your dog is allowed to sleep with you in your human bed, every dog should have a bed of their own.

Unlike the floor, a bed will keep your dog warm, support arthritic joints, and prevent calluses. And unlike a couch or human bed, dog beds are spaces that pups can have all to themselves.And if you’re allergic to your dogs, then it’s best if they sleep somewhere besides your bed.

Dog beds are also usually easy to wash, which makes life easier if your dog has accidents, gets infested with fleas or mites, or just rolls in something stinky.

A dog bed shouldn’t be used as a place for punishment or confinement. It’s a place of security that belongs only to that one dog, and they should always feel safe in it.

All dogs could benefit from having a place where they can feel calm and de-stress during the day or night.

There are so many dog beds on the market. How do you pick the best one? There are many factors to take into consideration, including size, cost, comfort, your dog’s medical needs, convenience, and so much more.

• A good fit. Beyond finding something within your budget, make sure your dog fits on the bed; heads and limbs shouldn’t have to be hanging off the edge.
• Easy washability. Dogs eat treats, vomit, pass gas, scratch fleas, and wipe ointment-filled eyes and ears on their beds. Some dogs urinate on them — so the ability to throw the bed into the washing machine is a big help, if not downright critical. Dogs with allergies will also benefit from having their bed washed frequently.

One of the wisest decisions a dog owner can make is to get a pet bed. Remember, a dog bed isn't an extravagant demonstration of how much money you can squander; true dog parents understand this.
