Size Guide
How to measure your dog
- With your dog standing or stretched out on their side, measure from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail.
- Add 6–8 inches to that length.
- Match the result to the sleep area column below.
When you’re between sizes, size up. Dogs stretch and sprawl in their sleep, and a bed that’s a touch too big always beats one that’s a touch too small.
Bed dimensions
| Size | Outer (in) | Sleep area (in) | Bolster height (in) | Recommended dog |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 24 × 18 | 18 × 12 | 4 | Up to 25 lb — e.g., Yorkie, Mini Dachshund, Shih Tzu |
| Medium | 31 × 24 | 24 × 18 | 5 | 26–45 lb — e.g., Beagle, Cocker Spaniel, French Bulldog |
| Large | 36 × 28 | 28 × 22 | 6 | 46–80 lb — e.g., Border Collie, Boxer, Pit Bull |
| Extra Large | 42 × 32 | 32 × 26 | 6 | 81+ lb — e.g., Lab, Golden, German Shepherd, Doodle |
Multi-dog households
If two dogs share a bed, measure the longer dog and size up one. Two large dogs are usually happier with two large beds than one extra-large — they like a bit of personal space, even when they pretend not to.
