Dogs can have specialized needs, just like people! Older dogs often have joint pain and arthritis. Some dogs may have trouble with bedwetting, and others may get cold easily. Thus, you should not forget to consider specialized needs when searching for the right dog bed! Memory foam and orthopedic foam beds have more support for aching joints and do not easily flatten. This makes them good if your dog has arthritis or a similar issue! Polyester fiberfill is easy to wash if your dog wets its bed frequently or if you need to get another odor out. Some dog beds have a cave design, which can benefit dogs with anxiety. They allow your dog to be enclosed in the bed for added warmth and security, much like using a blanket does for people.
