With human bedding, you’ll find mattresses in twin, queen, king, and California king sizes, and they are all built to standard sizes. Unfortunately, when it comes to bedding for dogs, there are no standards. What one company calls their extra large orthopedic dog bed may only be considered a large bed by another company. Any time you’re in the market for a new dog bed, then, you need to take some measurements to ensure that you buy a bed that will give your dog the room he needs.
So Many Choices
Suprisingly, there are quite a few choices to choose from when you are considering the purchase of a new dog bed. Even if you’ve got it narrowed down to an orthopedic bed, you’ll find a wide variety of sizes, shapes, styles, thicknesses, and colors. You can even find an extra large orthopedic dog bed that comes with a round mattress covered in faux tiger fur if that’s what you’re looking for.
When you shop for extra large orthopedic dog beds, salesmen will try to get you to buy a bed for every room in your house. Don’t fall for their spiel. Dogs really only need a single bed, just like their masters. You just want to be certain that the bed you end up choosing is an adequate size. It won’t have the metal springs or the weight of a human mattress, so if you need to move it to a different room, it will be quite portable. You will also be free to move it outdoors and indoors so that your dog can catch a nap wherever he is.
Never a Bad Color
You may have heard the saying that a good dog is never a bad color. The same can be said of extra large orthopedic dog beds. A bed’s appearance is much less of a concern compared to the material and quality of the inside. As long as the extra large orthopedic dog bed you choose is giving your dog the support he needs, helping him sleep well, easy to clean, and durable, the color of the bed is the least of your worries.
Of course, there are a lot of different colors and patterns of extra large orthopedic dog beds available. Usually the covers are removable and can be easily cleaned in the washing machine. They are also often reversible which will give your bed a more custom look and add to the life of the bed.
You can choose your extra large orthopedic dog bed to fit in with your décor. If later on you change the décor of your home, you’ll be able to find a new cover for your expensive dog bed that will make it fit right in.
