The position you sleep in makes a significant difference in the type of mattress you need. Thus, your dog's sleeping position makes a difference in the type of bed they need. Before selecting a dog bed, think about how your dog sleeps. Watch your dog and observe its positions! A dog who sleeps curled up or lying next to another dog or their human will benefits from a bed with high sides. This type of bed provides added warmth and something for them to push up against, providing added comfort and security.

A dog that sleeps spread out on its side will need a pillow-style dog bed! These beds are most like a mattress and provide a fair amount of room for the dog to enjoy. A dog who sleeps flat on its stomach or back will probably do best on a bed with a low bolster around it. This type of bed gives your dog something to push against and a comfortable sleeping cushion!
