Dogs sleep between 12 and 14 hours a day — and the quality of that sleep directly affects their health, mood, and behaviour.

What is the best dog bed?
The best dog bed depends on your dog's size, age, and sleep style. For most dogs, a memory foam dog bed with a washable cover is the best all-round choice.

What size dog bed do I need?
To find the right dog bed size, measure your dog from nose to tail when lying down and add 20–30cm. For dogs that curl up, a round bed works well. For dogs that stretch out, a rectangular dog mattress or oval bed with plenty of space is best.

The best dog bed for puppies is soft, warm, and machine washable. A round plush puppy bed with raised sides helps puppies feel secure and reduces anxiety in a new home. Choose a waterproof option if your puppy is still in training.
Are washable dog beds better?
A washable dog bed is strongly recommended for all dogs — especially puppies, senior dogs, and dogs that spend time outdoors. Machine-washable covers and waterproof liners make it easy to keep your dog's bed hygienic and odour-free.
