What goes into a great dog bed?

Forget the flea-infested, old blanket on the kitchen floor. Take buying your dog bed as seriously as buying your own.

Whatever breed of dog you have, they will all need a good night’s sleep. So when selecting their perfect bed here’s an insight into some of the new and impressive features on offer that combine to make the perfect pet bed.

To give your dog the perfect permanent home, the Vital Wilker Dog Baskets are made from a strongly designed and highly attractive Wicker frame that allows your dog to relax and enjoy their bed that also looks great in your home.

Alternatively, the Cleo Pet Sofa Loafer represents an innovative design that includes detachable arm rests that allow the lounger to easily be attached to the end of your couch. But the feature that you will really love is the non-slip waterproof back that is great for keeping the smell of wet dog and fur off your furniture.

Even if you and your dog are constantly on the go you still both deserve a cosy bed, which is where the ALF Blanket Roll Bed comes in. Perfect for easy storage, or for use when travelling this roll out bed makes a comfy and cosy bed that is available in a variety of sizes.

But for younger dogs getting the right bed can be even more important. The Danish Design My First Puppy Bed. Made from a comfy and cosy cream fleece and that creates a homely pouch, this bed will instantly make your pet feel at home. It even comes with a built-in pouch in which to insert a hot water bottle for when they aren’t feeling too well.
