The Size Guide

How to choose a dog bed?

Before selecting a bed, measure your dog from the tip of their nose to the base of their tail to determine their length. Additionally, measure their height while standing to understand how much headroom they need.

Our dog bed measures 1100 mm (L) x 760 mm (W) x 290 mm (H), accommodating medium to large breeds comfortably. Ensure there’s enough room for your dog to stretch out or curl up, depending on their sleeping habits.

If your dog is still a puppy, consider how much more they will grow and choose a bed that will fit them as they mature.

Consider your dog's preferred sleeping position. If your dog likes to sprawl, opt for a larger bed. If they curl up, a bed that offers a snug fit may work well.

How to Measure for Orthopedic Dog Beds

For orthopedic dog beds for big breeds, measure from nose tip to tail base for length, and standing height for headroom. This ensures large and senior dogs get ample space to stretch or curl up comfortably.​

Pro Tip: Add 4-6 inches to measurements for sprawling big dogs.
