Never underestimate the power of a dog bed. It’s more than just a cozy spot for your pooch—it's their sanctuary. A well-chosen dog bed keeps your furry friend warm, comfortable, and protected. It offers crucial support for their bones and joints, especially as they age, helping them stay active and mobile. Plus, it gives your dog a special place in the house that’s all theirs, whether it’s day or night.
Today’s dog beds come in a variety of styles. You’ll find padded beds with high sides, perfect for dogs of all sizes, and circular ‘snugs’ made from super-cuddly materials with reversible inserts that keep dogs toasty during the chilliest months, doubling as a calming bed. Floor cushions of different sizes and thicknesses are perfect for keeping your dog cool in summer and cozy in winter. No matter which bed you choose, it’s more than just a bed—it’s a place your dog can truly call their own!
To prevent chewing, use a safe, non-toxic deterrent spray specifically designed for pets. These sprays typically have a bitter taste that discourages chewing without harming your dog.
Most dog bedding can be machine washed. Remove any covers and wash them separately in mild detergent. For non-machine washable beds, use a sponge with soapy water to spot clean, and let it air dry. For more information on washing a dog bed, check out our guide.
