The Importance of a Quality Dog Bed
A good dog bed should be the foundation of comfort for your animal. Imagine yourself having to sleep on a cold hard floor every night. You’d likely wake up groaning and cracking like an abandoned house. So, getting your dog a bed to sleep on should be a top priority. But, is there really a difference in what doggie bed you buy them?
The Importance of a Quality Dog Bed
Just like it’s easy to tell the difference between a good mattress and a bad one, you can immediately tell when a dog bed is comfortable and quality or not. Ideally we humans tend to choose mattresses based on how comfortable they are, how durable they are, and if they fit our budget. But, ultimately, the comfort of the mattress tends to be the deciding factor.
Imagine for a second that you had to spend every night for years sleeping on a mattress filled with lumps, covered in grime, and with a massive spring poking through it. You’d likely not get the most comforting or rejuvenating night’s sleep. So, with that in mind, you want to choose a dog bed that is comfortable and built to last – because it will ultimately be the difference between your dog’s physical and mental well-being.
A quality dog bed will provide comfort and support to help give them rest, but also prevent medical conditions that could develop down the road. Improper sleeping conditions can cause joint and muscle pain, development of sores which can turn into infections, increased anxiety in the dog, and so much more. A comfortable and safe place to sleep is crucial to their health!
Things to Look For in a Quality Dog Bed
When shopping around for a quality dog bed, you want to check for comfort, durability, and safety. You want the bed to be able to provide your dog with all the pleasures and security they need while also being safe and long lasting–in essence, a good value. Some defining characteristics of a quality dog bed are:
- Fully stuffed in order to provide lump-free and supportive comfort.
- Flame retardant to avoid risk of bodily harm or property damage.
- Machine washable to keep it clean.
- Made from human/pet safe materials that won’t cause allergic reactions.
- Chew-proof or chew resistant.
- Locally made out of high quality fabrics, avoiding overly rough or synthetic feeling.
So, overall you want to look for a dog bed that will help your pup get the most rest and rejuvenation possible, without the risk of it falling apart, going lumpy, or being a safety hazard. When you find a bed that fits these criteria, you know you’ve found a good one!
