How to Choose the Right Size Bed for Your Dog Just like humans, dogs need the right bed size for maximum comfort and support. Too small, and they’ll be cramped. Too big, and they may not feel secure. Here’s how to measure your dog and match them with the perfect bed size for years of cozy naps.
Step 1: Measure Your Dog Length: Measure from nose to base of tail. Width: Measure across the shoulders at the widest point. Add 8–12 inches to the length for stretching space.
Step 2: Match Size to Bed Type Small Dogs (Chihuahua, Pomeranian): 20–25 inches diameter bed. Medium Dogs (Beagle, Cocker Spaniel): 30–36 inches. Large Dogs (Golden Retriever, Labrador): 40–48 inches.
Step 3: Consider Sleeping Style Curlers: Choose round or donut beds for a snug feel. Stretchers: Pick rectangular beds with space to sprawl. Woof Shop Recommendations:
