New Types of Dog Bedding

When a dog wants to lie down and take a nap, it isn’t really concerned whether it’s lying on dog bedding or an actual dog bed. Half the time, the two are virtually the same thing anyway. A couple of blankets, which humans would consider bedding, can be a perfectly fine bed for a dog. A flat cushioned pad with a fleece lining might stand with a foot on both sides of the fence. And in between you’ve got the sort of pet bed that has elements of both a traditional bed and the sort of things that would be thought of as bedding.

Some bedding for dogs is as simple as a bunch of blankets. If that’s the sort of bed your dog likes, then you can get these at places like the Salvation Army or other second hand stores. You don’t necessarily have to get elaborate with them, especially if you use them mainly to line the dog’s crate or to cover furniture. Yet many websites or stores where there are dog beds for sale will also have blankets, throws, and variations on them, designed especially for your dog. Some specially created blankets may have inserts for heating pads, or might be designed to wrap and towel off the dog after a bath.

But you can also buy custom dog beds that sit halfway between the definition of beds and dog bedding. These can come in fairly flat mat form, but then you have a product like the Faux Fur Trundle Bed, found at places like the Glamour Dog (www.glamourdog.com) website. This is a pet bed that is close to sphere-shaped, with a large hole in the top that allows your dog to burrow inside to snuggle and sleep if it wants, making itself a little nest. Or the bed can be flattened out so the dog can sleep on top of a plush double layer.

Other dog bedding serves a functional purpose other than just giving the dog something to lie on. For example, the Scottish dog supplies company, Tuffies, makes a cover for their beds that can wick away moisture, so that a wet dog can stay lying on a fairly dry cover and not be soggy and damp as it’s drying off. There are many different categories of bedding, and many bed accessories that accompany them. Whether you’re looking at simple blankets or quite elaborate beds and bedding setups, you have countless options for making your dog’s sleeping arrangements comfortable.
