Buying Guide

Whether you're buying a dog for the first time or you want to treat your pet to a brand new bed, leather dog beds are always a good option to consider. Although they come at a higher cost than other types of beds, such as polyester or cotton beds, they can provide extra comfort for your dog and last much longer than other types. Here are some factors you should think about when looking for a new leather dog bed.

How to select the right size of the dog bed?

This is arguably the most important thing to consider when buying any type of dog bed. The wrong size could result in your pet being uncomfortable and unhappy when trying to sleep or rest in the new bed, and in the worst scenarios, your dog will abandon the bed altogether and refuse to lie on it. As a guide, you should measure your pet in its natural sleeping position. If you haven't got your dog yet, you can ask the breeder or owner to measure the dog for you. If you are buying a puppy, find out what size your new pet will grow to.

For small dogs, you should then add 4-6 inches to determine a suitable size of bed to buy. For medium and larger dogs, you should add 8-12 inches to find the optimum size. The design of the dog bed will vary, and some may have extra padding at the sides. Always ensure the size you are measuring is the area on which your pet will lie, and not any borders or sides.

Where are you going to position the leather dog bed?

Is the bed going to be kept outside in a crate? How big is the crate and will the new bed fit? It is not recommended to keep leather outside, particularly when it is raining, so ensure your outdoor dog crate has a roof.

If the dog bed is going to be kept inside a crate indoors, take some measurements to make sure it fits. The bed should be 20-30 inches smaller than the dog crate so that your dog has some extra room to move around.

What are some of the leater dog bed designs?

By taking your time and not making any rushed decisions when it comes to buying a dog bed, you will be able to look at all the different styles and make an educated decision about which is best for your dog. Some leather dog beds are shaped like a cube and can be used as a footstool for you and a bed for your dog. Alternatively, many leather dog beds are shaped like miniature sofas, and the larger versions (up to 4 feet in length) can accommodate two small pets or one large one.

Another popular design is a leather bed with a different material used in the middle. This is perfect if your dog isn't a fan of leather and prefers a softer material. Wool, polyester, and foam are common materials which are used to make the dog bed more comfortable and cozy.
