Selecting the Right Bed for Your Dog

RightBedForPet_blog_640x400

Who can sleep for up to 20 hours a day but is often overlooked when it comes to quality beds? Humans aren't the only ones that deserve to be comfortable while we sleep. Just because your pup lounges on the floor or your cat snoozes under your bed, doesn't mean they don't need a comfy place to catch their Zzz's and call their own.

We want all pets to feel special — that's why Mattress Firm's recently introduced an assortment of the  best pet beds that will keep your furry friends sleeping soundly all night long.

Whether you're searching for large dog beds or a small cushion for your pet hedgehog ( we've seen it before!), here are some of the best dog beds we've seen yet:

But Before Selecting Your Bed...

If you're in the market to purchase a new sleep spot for your furry one, there are a few things to consider before you look, such as where you'll use the bed and how exactly your pet sleeps. If you plan to use the bed in the kennel or in the car, you'll need to measure the exact space you want it to fill. If you are using the bed in an open space, like your bedroom or the living room, consider your pet's sleep position. Your cat may like to sleep curled up in a little ball, in which case a small, cozy bed will be ideal. However, if your dog sprawls out and chases the occasional squirrel through his dreams, you may need to size up. A general rule to find the perfect fit is to measure your dog from nose to rump and add 10 inches.

Although no one knows your pet the way you do, we hope these suggestions help you find the perfect bed to help your furry family member sleep as well as you do for years to come.

Why You Should Keep Your Bedtime and Wake-Up Time the Same Each DayGood, consistent sleep has a host of benefits: Boosted immunity, reduced stress, easier weight control, better focus and more. But, if it’s typical for you to skimp on sleep all week and then try to “catch up” over the weekend, the bad news is you might not be getting these benefits. Even worse is that playing catch-up with sleep doesn’t really work that way.
