Comfortable Snuggle Dog Beds

There are many kinds of snuggle dog beds on the market. The important feature of all of them is that they are warm and comfy for your tired puppy. As when choosing any bed, it's important that the outside be of durable fabric, ideally the bed will have a slip-cover that is easy to launder. If not, the exterior of the bed should still hold up to spot-cleaning and kneading and pawing (as your dog makes himself comfortable for the night).

The most important feature of snuggle dog beds is the way they evenly support your dog's weight. Similar to a Foam Memory Bed, Snuggle dog beds let your dog sink into the bedding in a way that it wraps around him and evenly supports his weight, removing the pressure from hips and shoulders that is frequently experienced by dogs sleeping on the ground or other unforgiving surfaces.

This type of support is especially important for older dogs, large dogs, or dogs prone to joint problems. Getting your dog started sleeping on a supportive surface from the beginning MAY help prevent arthritis and other ailments as he ages.

As an added touch for warmth and comfort, some snuggle beds come attached with a hood or cover that your dog can burrow under when he goes to sleep. This feature is especially appreciated by small dogs and those who sleep in chilly environments!
