Frequently asked questions
- What measurements does the dog bed size tool use?
- Length from nose to tail base while lying stretched, plus a few inches for curling or sprawling style, gives a recommended bed length and width range.
- Should orthopedic beds follow the same size?
- Yes. Supportive foam still needs room to stretch. If your dog sleeps curled, you can lean toward the smaller end of the range.
- Why does my dog sleep hanging off the bed?
- Some dogs prefer cooler floor space or beds that are too warm. Size up once if their body does not fit on the cushion when fully extended.
- When does sleeping position matter for health?
- Senior dogs or those with arthritis may need thicker beds and easier entry. Ask your vet if your dog struggles to stand after rest or avoids the bed due to pain.
