What is a snuggle dog bed?

 

Dog beds come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, one being a snuggle type of dog bed. Snuggle dog beds are similar to a bean bag or a very fluffy down pillow. You dog can circle around and create a soft nest in the bed, surrounded by the fluffy pillow. Most are round in shape, but can also be square and are similar to a pillow type of dog bed but have an extremely high loft. Most snuggle types of dog beds are made with high-loft poly-fill to create a very full and fluffy, light weight dog bed and smaller beds may include a soft fabric cover or tent. Once the dog lies down on the bed, he can squish in and the bed will fluff up around him. Also called Snuggle Balls, snuggle dog beds are created for dogs who love to curl up in your down comforter and smaller or short haired dogs who need extra warmth and insulation around them. Some dogs with thick coats may find the bed to be too warm, and older dogs may not find the high loft to be very supportive.

Most snuggle types of dog beds come in plush fabrics to enhance the feeling of being surrounded by soft bedding. Be sure that the snuggle bed you purchase has a hidden zipper, reinforced seams and a removable and washable cover. Snuggle dog beds benefit from a good shaking outdoors to reset the loft and air out. Snuggle beds are great for small puppies who like to feel more secure when surrounded and insulated. However older puppies who are teething and chewing may find the snuggle bed to be an easy chew toy and may require a more substantial and chew-proof bed.
