Where does your dog sleep?

Just like you, your dog also wants a comfortable place to rest and sleep on. Most dogs love to sleep on their master’s bed because they feel much more comfortable and warm in a human bed. However, although some people do allow their dogs to sleep beside them, it would be better to give your dog a bed of his own.

Different types of dog bed can be bought in the market. However, when purchasing a dog bed, you have to make sure about two things --- Comfort and Durability. Of course, cheap dog beds are usually not meant to last very long. In this case, you’ll want to go with a trusted brand. Although, branded dog beds can be more expensive than others, you can be assured that they are made of high-quality materials that can withstand your dog’s lifetime.

In order to be comfortable, the bed has to be just the right size. If your dog is still a puppy, consider a bed that will be big enough to accommodate him until adulthood.

Make sure that there is enough space for him to stretch and move in when he’s asleep. Your dog may not enjoy sleeping on his own bed if it’s too small or too narrow. Choose a mattress that is well-cushioned, soft yet durable enough to withstand your dog’s weight. Also, make sure that the surface of the bedding is soothing to your dog’s fur.

Once you’ve taken home your dog's bed, put it in a place where your dog enjoys sleeping the most. It is important for your dog to know his permanent place in your home. Dogs usually spend 13 hours each day sleeping so giving your dog a comfortable bed will not just make him sleep better but will also make him happier.
