Helping your dog get a good nights rest is not as big of a challenge as you think. There are a variety of dog bedding styles both heated and non heated that will suit all occasions
Dog Bedding For Winter
A heated dog bed is the choice for winter so that your dog stays warm and toasty. There is a large assortment of styles that you can choose from such as the orthopedic heated beds with thick orthopedic foam to help cushion the joints and decrease pressure points, pillow-style beds with a heater inside, igloo style half-rounded heated pads to fit in igloo dog houses, heated, oval beds for small and toy-breed dogs, and heated kennel mats for use outside.

Dog Bedding For Summer
If you live in a warmer climate with hot summer months, your pet may enjoy a durable aluminum framed pet bed that is like to a camping cot. These beds are raised just enough to circulate air from beneath to keep your pet cool but still low enough for them to climb onto. You can also place a blanket on top of the bed to create a cozy place for your pet to snuggle. These types of beds are lightweight and great in keeping your pet's odor from becoming immersed into your carpets.
Dual thermostats to ensure consistent temperature; 102 degrees is an optimal temperature for dogs. Look for a heated bed that provides a full-range, variable heat control. This allows you to adjust the heat from off to full temperature heat quickly and easily. Look for heated beds that maintain the surface temperature of the bed about 12 to 15 degrees above ambient air temperature. When your dog lies on the bed, the temperature warms to a cozy 102. Because the heater from the warmer insert only warms up when your dog is on the bed, it doesn't waste a lot of energy. Depending on the size of the bed, most heated beds use 6-13 watts. A removable heater is also recommended so that you can wash the bed and use it year-round without the heat. Read the product information vigilantly. Some heated beds are suitable and used for indoor use only, while other beds, such as heated kennel mats, are suitable for outside use.
Summer Dog Bedding
Aluminum framed pet beds that are like a camping cot are a great idea for the summer months. The beds can be raised so that you have airflow under the cot to keep it cool and it also helps keeping your pet's odor from becoming immersed into your carpets.
1. Use the Weight of the Pet 2. When in doubt get the larger, not the smaller size In general we believe that measuring your pet lying down as he is normally accustomed to lying, is the best way. Measure from nose or front legs, to back legs or rump; add 9 to 12. Pick the size of the bed that will best fit those measurements, remembering that round bed measurements are in diameter (width across the circle).
By ensuring you have picked the right size bed and one that suits the season your dog will be comfortable and happy.
