Dog bed size guide

How to measure

Measure your dog from nose to the base of the tail while they sleep in their favourite position, then add 10 to 15 cm.

Curlers

Dogs that curl up often like a bed with raised sides or bolsters.

Check

Look at the internal sleeping area, not the outer size.

Tip

If your dog is between sizes, go up a size.

Sprawlers

Dogs that stretch out need a flat bed or a raised cot with plenty of length.

Bed types

Choose the shape that suits how your dog sleeps.

Sofa and bolster beds

A raised edge gives something to lean on. Look for a removable cover and a non-slip base.

Washing

Machine-washable covers make it easier to keep the bed fresh.

Care

Follow the care label and let covers dry fully.

Raised cooling cots

A raised mesh cot lets air circulate and works indoors and in the garden. Many fold for storage or camping.

Older dogs

A raised cot can be harder to get onto for stiff dogs. Consider a lower bed or add a step.
