Dog Beds

Compare dog beds by size, support and how easy they are to keep clean. Every listing shows the current price, rating and delivery estimate, and our reviews explain which dog each bed suits.

Start with size. Measure your dog from the nose to the base of the tail while it lies stretched out, then add a few inches. Dogs that curl up are comfortable on round or bolster beds; dogs that sprawl need a flat rectangular mattress.

Next, decide how much support you need. Orthopedic and memory-foam beds spread weight more evenly and suit large, heavy and senior dogs or dogs with stiff joints. Thin fiber-filled mats are lighter and cheaper but flatten faster.

Finally, think about cleaning. A removable, machine-washable cover and a waterproof liner make the biggest everyday difference, especially for puppies and older dogs. Check the listing: usually only the cover goes in the washing machine, while foam inserts are spot-cleaned.

Frequently asked questions

What size dog bed should I buy?

Measure your dog from nose to the base of the tail while it lies stretched out and add a few inches. Choose a larger bed if your dog likes to sprawl.

Are orthopedic dog beds worth it?

They help most for large, senior or stiff-jointed dogs, because thicker foam keeps the joints off the floor. A young, small dog is usually fine on a standard bed.

Can I put a dog bed in the washing machine?

Usually only the cover. Look for a removable, machine-washable cover in the listing; foam inserts are normally spot-cleaned and air-dried.
