Which
dog beds are the most comfortable?
Every dog bed manufacturer claims that their
dog is the most comfortable dog bed on the market. Only your dog
will know for sure. The best way to judge if your dog likes his bed
is if he uses it or not. If you buy a bed and your dog turns his
nose up to it, there could be several reasons for his displeasure.
Most dog beds have a “new” smell that most dogs do not like. It may
help to cover a new dog bed with a towel or blanket that already has
your smell or your dogs smell on it. Washing a new bed may also
help. However, if after several months, your dog still does not like
his new bed, you may have to accept the fact that you choose the
wrong bed, and consider buying a new one.
The best way to choose the right bed is to carefully watch your dog
and determine his favorite sleep patterns. The most comfortable dog
bed for your dog will be comfortable in his favorite sleep
positions, and will not require him to adopt a new sleep position.
If your dog likes to stretch out in front of the fireplace, than a
doughnut or cuddler bed may not be the best choice.
Dogs are designed to be perfectly happy sleeping outside on the
ground, so most dog beds will provide more than adequate cushion. In
fact some dog beds may be too soft or mushy for your dog. Some of
the new orthopedic dog beds have additional layers of foam for more
support and comfort for older and disabled dogs; however they will
work perfectly well for healthy dogs. A comfortable dog bed, for
most dogs, will be soft but still firm so that the dog is cushioned
from the floor but is lying on a stable base. Just like you, a dog
will not be comfortable if his bed forces him to sleep in an
unnatural or tilted position.
