Your Pup Deserves To Be Comfy, Too — Here Are the Best Dog Beds for Very Good Boys and Girls

If there’s one thing dog owners love more than their dogs, it’s spoiling them whenever possible. And one of the most important ways to do that is by getting a really nice dog bed.

Sure, you could let your dog sleep on the floor or the couch but providing a safe and cushioned place for your pup is just as critical as it is for you to sleep in a bed. Plus, making sure they’ve got the proper cushion and support, especially as they age, is absolutely critical.

With all this in mind, we’ve found 15 of the best dog beds on the market to ensure your dog has the best bed available. Here are our favorites from lounge beds for aging dogs to big splurges and even easy to travel with beds.

1. Casper Plush Memory Foam Dog Bed

BEST OVERALL

With three different sizes, four different colors, plenty of stability, and exceeding levels of comfort, Casper’s Plush Memory Foam Dog Bed is easily our pick for the best overall dog bed. It starts with pressure-relieving and durable support memory foam that creates a texture that cushions your pup as they rest. A supportive topper allows for extra support if they like to paw or dig at any point. Additionally, foam bolsters make for a safe space for head resting. And, naturally, the cover is totally removable if it needs to be washed. It’s the same level of luxury you’d expect for your own mattress — just for your dog instead.

2. MidWest Homes for Pets Plush Dog Bed

BEST VALUE

Whether you’ve got a dog that loves to chew through things or you need a starter bed for your puppy until you can upgrade when they get bigger, this dog bed from MidWest Homes for Pets is a fantastic value option. Under $30, you won’t feel too bad if Fido literally tears it a new one. But just because it’s cheap doesn’t mean it’s cheaply made, as its non-skid bottom provides a good grip on your floor while the plush bed coddles your pup nicely.

3. Big Barker Orthopedic Dog Bed

BEST FOR OLDER DOGS

The older dogs get, the more help and support they’ll need. This is why investing in this orthopedic dog bed from Big Barker can make a huge difference. We’re not talking about marketing fluff here, as a study from the University of Pennsylvania showed less pain and more mobility from those dogs who used a Big Barker dog bed. While the bed is meant for larger breeds, it’ll still be just as helpful for smaller dogs too.

4. Pendleton Grand Canyon National Park Pillow Dog Bed

MOST STYLISH

Pendleton’s designs are just incredible. There’s really no other word for it. The timeless bits of Americana they work into their clothing (or in this case, dog beds) feels like a throwback to the days of old west towns. And while things are certainly better now, that doesn’t mean you can’t bring a bit of that inspiration home. With four different sized beds, plush polar fleece for comfort, and a washable cover, your pup will both look and feel great when lounging on this bed.

5. FAREYY Dog Bed

BEST FOR SMALL DOGS

While FAREYY’s dog bed offerings come in a variety of different sizes, we love their bed for smaller breeds the best. The soft, plush surface provides cushioned comfort, while the wraparound, raised rim gives a feeling of safety and security for your dog. Bolsters also provide support for neck, back, and hips. Most importantly, the cover is totally removable to be washed should you need to do so. And, at 32″ x 24″, it’ll snug your smaller pup almost as well as you do.

6. Enchanted Home Leather Sofa Dog Beds

BEST LEATHER

Leather couches both look and feel extravagant, so why not extend that luxury to your dog as well? We love the trend of mini couches for dogs, and a company called Enchanted Homes makes super cool sofa-style dog beds. The stylish sofa bed pictured below combines the look and feel of a classic leather couch with the functionality of a dog bed. The company makes a variety of dog couches to suit puppers of all sizes. The faux-leather material includes a solid foam cushion to help cradle your dog with all kinds of comfort. Plus, the vibration-absorbing feet will ensure your new dog sofa doesn’t tip over when your dog gets in and out during the day.

 

7. LL Bean Therapeutic Dog Bed

MADE TO LAST

Just like their fantastic boots and all the other amazing products LL Bean makes, their therapeutic dog bed is made to last. Capable of handling all the rough and tumble that comes with owning a pet, the rugged cover can be totally removed to wash after the fact. The supportive bed helps to evenly distribute the weight of your dog and helps to actively relieve pressure. Additionally, the cell-foam construction makes it so your pet stays cool in the summer and warm during the winter. Well worth its price, this is a bed that you’ll buy once and then never need to worry about replacing ever again.

8. La-Z-Boy Sofa Dog Bed

BEST DOG COUCH

In the same way that La-Z-Boy has become a household name and shorthand for home comfort, the same can be said for their take on Dog Bed. This couch-style bed provides a boost off the floor so they’re not on the ground level along with dirt and dust. The bed itself has three different bolsters for support. The textured upholstery helps to cut down on wear and tear. And, should it get dirty, you can remove the cover and wash it.

9. Frisco Igloo Covered Dog Bed

BEST COVERED BED

Perfect for smaller dogs, this Igloo-style covered dog bed from Frisco is great to provide a safe place for your pet. Inherently comfy, the bed itself is coated with a very plush and cushioned fabric to cuddle your dog while they sleep. The entire bed can be machine washed, while it also can lay flat — which makes carrying it a breeze.

10. Enchanted Homes Rosie Dog Bed

MOST MODERN

We couldn’t resist including one more option from Enchanted Homes, which makes some of the best dog beds for pet owners who care about their doggo and home decor. This modern dog bed will blend perfectly into your home’s interior design, and guests may even think it’s a seat for humans at first glance. This dog bed is ideal for small dogs, and it’s low to the ground for breeds like Corgis with small legs.

11. Best Friends by Sheri Donut Cuddler Dog Bed

BEST FOR MEDIUM-SIZED DOGS

With its shaggy fabric and rounded design, this dog bed from Best Friends by Sheri is sized at 30″ by 30″ which makes it a great fit for more medium-sized dogs. The shag fabric is more than just for show, as it is meant to mimic a mother’s fur and help lull your dog into a deeper sleep than other beds. While it’s hard to tell in the photo, the slightly raised edges provide not only a sense of security but also give neck and head support while your dog is sleeping.

12. Friends Forever Lounge Dog Bed

BEST FOR LARGE DOGS

Sized at 44″ by 34″, the Friends Forever Lounge Dog Bed lives up to its name by providing a luxurious amount of room for even large dogs. Made with a plush, poly-fill bolster and mattress foam, your big guy or girl will feel like they’re resting on a cloud. Plus, the softcover is removable to make cleaning a breeze while also being anti-tear too.

13. Yeti Trailhead Two-in-One Dog Bed

BEST SPLURGE 

Looking to really spoil your dog? Yeti’s Trailhead Two-in-One dog bed should be your first and last stop. As evidenced by its name, it’s actually two different beds; the bottom portion is more of a “home base” that includes a sturdy base crafted from EVA foam and provides extra cushion for big dogs. The middle is a removable travel pad that’s easy to roll and take on the go thanks to its high-density foam core. It’s just the kind of luxury spin on a well-established classic we’d expect from the brand.

14. Kurgo Portable Dog Bed

BEST TRAVEL DOG BED

With its included handle, waterproof top and bottom, and easy ability to roll up, this Kurgo Portable Dog Bed is the choice for outdoor adventures. The bed is made from a quilted (and yes, waterproof!) ripstop fabric that’s also durable for the outdoors’ ruggedness. Additionally, the rufftex bottom makes it so the bed won’t slip while you’re driving. And the entire bed not only rolls into itself for easy carrying but can also be machine washed.

15. K&H Pet Products Dog Cot

BEST COT

If you’d prefer to elevate your dog bed experience, this cot-style option from K&H does more than just raising the bar. The lifted bed allows your pet to stay cooler in warmer months since the base is made from a breathable mesh for better airflow. Additionally, the bed can hold up to 200 pounds and is waterproof to boot. However, cleaning isn’t quite as simple as sending it through the wash, but you can hose it off rather easily.

16. FurHaven Comfy Couch Dog Bed

BEST FEATURES FOR PRICE

Under $70, this couch-style dog bed from FurHaven has a lot of features you’d anticipate seeing in a dog bed double the cost. The couch-style bed provides plenty of comfort and bolsters for your dog to curl up on whenever they need a break. A “peak and valley” design helps to regulate airflow, while the egg-crate foam helps to ease tension in your dog. This jumbo-sized version is great for big dogs, but they have smaller versions too if that’s your preference.
