How to Find The Right Dog Bed
Measure your dog the easy way
To measure your dog, check their sleeping style:
Sprawlers: measure from nose to tail, then add a little extra room.
Curlers: they can often size down, depending on the shape.
If you’re between sizes, go bigger—many dogs prefer space to stretch out for deeper sleep.
Match the bed type to their needs
If your dog has stiff mornings, limps after walks, or is getting older, an orthopedic bed with high density memory foam can help support your dog’s joints and reduce pressure points. A quality memory foam dog bed (or orthopaedic memory foam) is often an excellent choice for senior dogs and larger breeds that carry more weight.
For anxious pups that love to burrow, look for calming shapes and calming faux fur styles (soft, snuggly, and soothing).
For dogs that come inside wet (beach days, rain, post-bath zoomies), choose water resistant or waterproof options with a protective lining.
Think about your home
Real life happens—mud, fur, spills, and odour. A great bed should be easy to clean, with covers that can go in the machine. Look for durable materials that hold up over time, so your bed stays supportive for years, not weeks.
Types of Dog Beds
Not every dog bed works for every dog. The best choice depends on your dog’s age, size, sleep style, and your home routine. Use these popular types to quickly find the right fit—whether you’re shopping for cooling comfort, joint support, or a bed that can handle real-life wear.
Human Dog Bed
Want the ultimate cuddle zone? A human dog bed is made for big stretches, shared lounging, and dogs that always want to be where you are. It’s a great pick for families who love movie nights on the floor, or pups that get anxious when left out.
Best for: Velcro dogs (Cavoodles, Labs), anxious dogs, bonding time.
Large Dog Bed
If your dog sprawls out, a large dog bed gives them space to fully stretch from nose to tail. Bigger beds can also help reduce pressure points by letting dogs change position more often during sleep.
Best for: Labradors, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Greyhounds, Mastiffs.
Undestroyable Dog Bed
For chewers, diggers, and “nest builders,” an undestroyable dog bed is designed with durability in mind. Look for tougher fabrics, reinforced seams, and protected zips—so the bed lasts longer and stays looking good.
Best for: Puppies, Staffies, Kelpies, Border Collies, Terriers, power chewers.
Cooling Dog Bed
Australia’s warm weather can make some beds feel stuffy. A cooling dog bed helps your dog stay comfortable on hot days and after walks—especially for thick-coated breeds or dogs that run warm.
Best for: Huskies, Samoyeds, Bulldogs, Pugs, double-coat breeds, summer sleepers.
Calming Dog Beds
A calming dog bed is ideal for dogs that love to curl up and feel secure. These beds are often plush and supportive around the edges, which can help nervous dogs settle, relax, and sleep more deeply.
Best for: Rescue dogs, anxious pups, Cavoodles, French Bulldogs, Dachshunds.
Orthopedic Dog Bed
If your dog is older, heavier, or showing signs of stiffness, an orthopedic dog bed can provide better support for dog’s joints and help ease joint pain. Look for high-density foam or memory foam options for pressure relief and long-term comfort.
Best for: Senior dogs, large breeds, dogs with arthritis, post-surgery recovery.
Dog Beds FAQs
What is the best type of bed for a dog to sleep on?
The best dog bed depends on your dog’s age, body, and health. For seniors or dogs with joint pain, an orthopedic or memory foam dog bed with high density memory foam can provide better joint support and comfort. For anxious dogs, calming styles can help them settle faster.
Do dogs prefer round or square beds?
It depends on how they sleep. Curlers often love round, plush beds with bolsters. Sprawlers usually prefer a rectangle or square bed that lets them stretch out fully. Watch how your dog sleeps “most of the time” and choose from there.
Should a dog bed be bigger than the dog?
Usually, yes—especially for sprawlers. A bed that’s slightly larger helps them change positions, stretch, and stay comfortable. If your dog curls tightly, they may prefer a snug fit, depending on the bed style.
