Pillows are the most common types of beds. Pillows come in many sizes, shapes, and colors. Some are filled with cedar chips that certainly add a pleasant aroma to the room. Cedar is also a natural flea repellent which will help prevent infestation of your dog. Many of these beds have a zippered inner liner so that you can add fresh cedar , or remove the polyfil so that your pet gets just the right firmness.
Outer liners are easy to remove for laundering.
Mats are less bulky and usually fit nicely into a corner or inside a crate . Crate pads, specially designed to fit inside a crate, are made of a firm polyfoam and covered with a longlasting, washable nylon fabric. Many dogs love the secure feeling a nest bed gives. Orthopedic beds are of great benefit to pets that develop joint problems such as hip dysplasia. They also benefit aging dogs, dogs with arthritis, or overweight dogs.
