Your dog needs at least one special place where they can sleep and be left alone if wanted. All of your family members should respect this special place. Today we will tell you all you need to know about your dog’s bed!

According to owners, dog’s beds can be very different. Some owners prefer a cushion and others a basket. The most important thing is to understand your dog and provide them with a bed that best suits them.

Different kinds of beds.

For a dog who wants to stay warm:

A basket with cushions and blankets is ideal. Your dog will stay warm and comfy all night! If you notice your dog likes to be under tables or beds, you can place his bed under the table. They should feel very safe and secure!

For a dog who likes to stay fresh:

If your dog likes to lie down on the tiles or lounge along the windows, they might prefer a different kind of bed. Offer your dog a plastic basket or a wide rug for example.

Where should I place my dog

Wherever you place your dog’s bed, the most important thing is that your pet’s sleeping area is well defined. If your house is big, you can put a bed on every floor or in every room. The most ideal place for your dog’s sleeping area is in the family living area. Dogs like to be near the main entrance door, this way they can watch and protect the house.

Hygiene

Don’t forget to clean your dog’s bed at least once a month. Their hair and dirt from outside will make their beds dirty.

Privacy

You should always respect your dog’s privacy! Consider your dog’s bed to be like their bedroom and remember that you appreciate it when people knock first and then enter your bedroom. Call your dog’s name first to wake them before moving them etc.
