A dog bed is an essential piece of equipment for all dogs
regardless of size, breed or age.
A good dog bed:
- provides a private space and sense of security;
- provides insulation from the floor in both winter and
summer;
- cushions joints and bones;
- controls the spread of hair, dirt, and dander.
It may also save your furniture, as your dog will soon prefer
his bed to your sofa.
Choosing the Right Dog Bed
How your dog sleeps, his size, age, or physical condition must
all be considered when choosing the perfect bed for your
dog.
Dog Bed Shapes
The shape of a dog bed is just as important as the size and
filling.
- Round dog beds are great for dogs who curl up when they
sleep. Our round dog beds are also ideally suited for younger
dogs, who need a greater sense of security.
- Rectangular dog beds work best for dogs who stretch out.
Older dogs often have less flexibility and will find a
rectangular dog bed more comfortable.
Bolster Dog Beds
If you've ever found your dog sleeping with his back to the
couch or a cushion, he's there for a reason. Dogs who sleep
this way do so because the support against their back offers
them a feeling of security. Bolster dog beds are great for
providing both security and comfort. Plus, the soft,
spun-polyester-stuffed bolster makes an excellent pillow.
- Round bolster dog beds provide the perfect spot for dogs who
like to curl up and snuggle next to something soft when they
sleep.
- Rectangular dog loungers with soft bolsters on the back and
sides provide a bed with a cozy cover that allows dogs to
burrow in and relax in comfort.
- Deep dish bolster dog beds are great for homes with more than
one dog.
Bagel Dog Beds
Does your dog circle and circle to find just the right place to
lie down? Dogs who like to look for the perfect nesting spot
love Bagel dog beds. With a soft, overstuffed bolster that
completely surrounds your dog, Bagel dog beds provide a sense
of safety and security that some dogs need when they snuggle
in.
Burrow Dog Bed
Many dogs, small breeds in particular, can't settle down to
sleep unless they have their backs snuggled into something for
an added feeling of safety and security. The Dog Burrow is the
perfect solution--the half-covered hood offers an enclosed
area, much like a natural den.
Memory Foam for Older Dogs
For older dogs, rectangular dog beds with memory foam help to
ease the discomfort and stiffness associated with joint and
muscle pain, whether from age, arthritis, hip dysplasia, or
injury. By conforming to your dog's individual body shape, less
stress and pressure are put on the joints and muscles.
Excessive callus irritation over joints is also minimized. A
memory foam dog bed with a down covering will provide
additional luxurious warmth.
ToughChew Dog's Nest: For Dogs Who Chew
The ToughChew Dog's Nest is made to be chew resistant to stand
up to puppies as well as adult dogs who like to chew. While
it's tough, it's also soft enough for a comfortable night's
sleep. Available in seven sizes and two shapes with the same
high-loft hypoallergenic polyester filling.
Space-Saving Beds
If available space for a dog bed is a factor, then give your
dog a luxurious dog bed that lets him spend time where you do
without getting in the way. Space-saving dog beds tuck neatly
in a corner or against a wall, allowing your dog a comfortable
place to sleep that you can live with, too.
Couch Guardians
For dogs who love to rest on the couch, a couch guardian
protects your furniture from stains, liquids, pet hair, and
odors with innovative protection for your couch or love seat.
At the same time, it gives your dog a comfortable place to
rest. In a range of colors and even in fine leather, couch
protectors complement any home's decor.
Dog Blankets
More than half of all dog owners in America allow their dogs to
sleep on their beds or couches. If you need a protective
covering for your couch or bed that's also comfortable and
stylish, Three Dog Night bedding is for you. This dog-proof
bedding protects your bed or couch from moisture, dirt, and
provides you with a comfortable warm place to sleep with your
dog.
Outdoor Dog Beds
For a comfortable place to sleep on the back porch, nothing
beats an outdoor dog bed. These dog beds can be cleaned with a
garden hose, are fast drying and will not mold or mildew.
Portable Dog Beds and Mats for Travel
When you travel, be sure to take a travel mat or portable dog
bed for the comfort of your best friend. Travel mats and beds
fold for ease of transport and ensure that your dog will have a
more restful trip.
