A bed for the dog and the cat, do we have to? want? The answers to these and other pet bed questions can be found in this article.
A bed for a dog or a cat? What is the question ? "He sleeps on the couch" "He sleeps in the bed with me" He settles on the blanket that we decided to turn into a bed for the dog" . . .

Domestic animals are busy sleeping for many hours, most of the dog's/cat's daily activity is running around. Anyone who raises an animal at home, and especially a dog, knows our pet's search for the best place to beat it.

Apparently we can settle for the corner of the sofa that the dog sits on when the place is free (and no one else is sitting), or on the corner of the carpet or on the lower part of the double bed or even the floor But when we talk about dogs (and in some cases also cats), an important part of the pet's sense of security and calmness is the knowledge that he has a safe place that is only his, one that is available to him all the time and he can feel safe in his territory at any time of the day.

Also, if we don't want the dog to climb on the sofas or sleep in the bed with us, it is important that our animal does have a place where he is allowed to stay and lie down.

So if you are also the owner of a dog or cat and you care about him and his well-being is important to you, it is time to purchase the right bed for him.

So how do you choose a dog bed? What are the considerations?

1. The size of the bed should match the size of the dog - first you have to choose a bed that fits our dog in size, on the one hand, our dog usually likes to lie down in a "small" place, cuddle and feel surrounded by contact with the bed. On the other hand, a bed that is too small for the size of the dog will cause the dog to stay away from the bed and not use it.

2. The type of fabric - so here too you have to check if my dog ​​likes a hard surface or a furry mattress, will, when we bring him a padded bed, will he immediately tear it up and destroy it? Is it important to us a type of fabric that can be separated from the bed and then washed? If our dog likes the feeling of our bed/sofa, it is important to find him a bed that is similar in sensations, one that is cuddly and enveloping. If our dog likes the carpet or the floor, you can look for the flat, wide and less furry bed.

3. The dog's age and health condition - if our dog is older or suffers from pain, is more sensitive in certain places or is particularly thin, it is necessary to look for a bed that is soft on one side and not high on the other (that the dog will not have to make an effort to reach). In some cases, it is possible to purchase an orthopedic bed for the suffering dog.

4. The location of the bed in the house - if your dog likes to be placed in a central place in the house, in the living room or in a visible place, it would be worthwhile to invest in a bed that also looks as good as another piece of furniture in the house.

Some common types of dog beds include:

• Standard dog beds: These are dog beds designed to be comfortable and provide a soft place for your dog to sleep. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and are often made of materials such as cotton or liquid-repellent or leather-like fabric.

• Orthopedic dog beds: These are designed to provide extra support and comfort for dogs with joint pain, arthritis or other conditions that affect their mobility. They usually include high-density foam and other materials that conform to the dog's body shape and relieve pressure points.

• Raised dog beds: These are raised dog beds that keep your dog off the ground and provide extra support for his joints. They can also help keep your dog cool in hot weather, as air can circulate under the bed.

It is important to remember: beds are perishable, no bed can withstand a dog's teeth, therefore a dog that wants to can absolutely destroy a bed, sometimes literally in a few minutes.

Another important point, it is possible to accustom a dog to a new nesting place, whether it is a new member of the house or has already adopted some habits that are comfortable for it.
