Finding the perfect dog bed isn't always easy. And if it is, you might not be putting in as much thought as your pup deserves.
Just like humans, dogs have different sleep styles. Some of us are side or back sleepers and we choose our mattresses and pillows accordingly. Our pets have preferences too. From loafers and curlers to head resters and sprawlers, how your dog sleeps says a lot about the kind of bed they need.
Here’s how to choose the best dog bed based on your pup’s sleep style.
The Loafer
Paws, arms and tail tucked in, head resting forward or slightly lifted, the classic loaf isn’t just for cats. Many dogs nap this way, too!
For those who loaf, try a Dreamland Lounge Bed, available in two versatile, dreamy colorways. This style is perfect for loafers, as it conforms to their body while supporting their joints. An added bonus is the bolsters on all sides that allow our furry loafers to prop their head at different levels.
The Traveler
From one city to another, or even just a 5-minute drive, pups who travel in crates or in the backseat of a car will find themselves relaxed to the max with one of our Chill Pads! Perfectly compact for on-the-go travelling and easily rolled up for easy packing, say hello to ease, comfort and style!
Check out the new Canyon Series Chill Pad (pictured above), made with a textured top layer for pups who love to roll around!
The Sprawler
The Boxy Bed and Pillow Bed are ideal for this sleep style. Soft yet structured and available in a variety of patterns, colors and sizes, these beds give sprawlers the space (and cushion) they crave.
The Curlers, Cuddlers and Everyone in Between
Some dogs sleep like cinnamon rolls, curled up and cozy! For these fuzzy friends, our Snuggle Bed is the perfect choice.
This bed can be shaped into the coziest burrow pet bed for safe and secure snuggles or flat for your pet to lay on top for lazy lounging.
The Head Resters
Dogs who need a place to prop their heads will love the Moroccan Lounge Bed! With four bolstered sides and one lower entry point, it supports headrests from every angle.
This bed is available in three beautiful colors and canvas fabric that washes and dries with ease, keeping even the messiest pups sleeping clean and comfy.
Author's Note:
The best part about all these beds is the inclusive sizing, from XS - XL pups. Always check the size chart before purchasing to ensure the best fit. The bed should be slightly roomier than your pup's size to give them enough space to lounge comfortably.
