Buying a dog bed may seem simple—until you realize how many types there are.
Flat or raised? Soft or orthopedic? Blanket-style or structured? Choosing the right bed depends on your dog’s unique needs, not just the aesthetics.
Here’s a guide to help you pick the perfect one:
🐶 1. Consider Your Dog’s Size & Weight
Small dogs (like Chihuahuas or Pomeranians) often love beds with raised sides they can curl into. Larger breeds (like Labradors or Huskies) need beds with firm support and space to stretch out. Always check dimensions—some beds look big in photos but aren’t deep enough for large dogs.
💤 2. Watch Their Sleeping Habits
-
Curled Sleepers: Prefer round beds with bolstered edges
-
Side Sleepers / Belly Spreaders: Need flat mats or rectangular beds
-
Burrowers: Love blanket-style covers or donut-shaped designs
Observing how your dog sleeps helps narrow down the shape and firmness.
👵 3. Age & Joint Health Matters
Senior dogs, large breeds, or those with arthritis benefit from orthopedic memory foam beds. These relieve pressure on joints and reduce stiffness after naps.
🧼 4. Think Practical: Washable & Durable
A great dog bed should be easy to clean. Look for removable, machine-washable covers and waterproof linings—especially if you have a puppy or an outdoor-loving dog.
🎨 5. Don’t Forget Your Space
Pawooz beds are designed to blend into your home without screaming "pet furniture." Choose colors and textures that complement your decor—and give your pet their own stylish spot.
Your dog’s bed is more than a place to sleep—it’s where they feel safe, calm, and at home.
Take the time to choose a bed that fits their habits, supports their body, and works with your lifestyle.
