All dog beds for medium dogs

Little essentials. Lots of love.

12 products

These are the medium sizes from our Dog Beds range: a cooling gel memory foam bed, rectangular bolster beds, a pet sofa for medium and large dogs and a removable, washable outdoor bed. They suit dogs of roughly 25 to 60 lb, such as Beagles, Border Collies, Cocker Spaniels, Australian Shepherds and Bulldogs, and owners who want one bed that will last.

Sizing a bed for a medium dog

Measure your dog lying in its usual sleeping position. For a dog that stretches out, measure from nose to the base of the tail and add about 6 to 12 inches; for a curler, measure the curled diameter and add a few inches. Rectangular beds suit stretchers and bolster beds suit dogs that like to lean on something.

Medium is a wide category. A compact 25 lb Beagle and a 60 lb Australian Shepherd both count, so go by your dog's measurements rather than the label. If your dog is between sizes, the larger bed is usually the better choice.

Memory foam and support

Memory foam spreads a dog's weight and reduces pressure points, which suits active dogs after a long day and older dogs with stiff joints. A thicker foam base keeps a heavier medium dog off the floor rather than sinking through.

Cooling gel foam adds a layer that draws heat away, which helps dogs that run warm and flat-faced breeds such as Bulldogs. For dogs with diagnosed joint problems, ask your vet what support level suits them.

Sofas, bolsters and outdoor beds

Pet sofas give a raised, furniture-style bed with sides to rest a head on, and suit dogs that like to watch the room. Rectangular bolster beds combine a flat sleeping area with a raised edge on three sides.

Outdoor beds with removable, washable covers are made for patios, porches and yards, and for dogs that come in muddy. Keep outdoor beds in shade, bring them in during heavy rain, and dry the cover fully after washing.

Washing and replacing

Choose a bed with a removable, machine-washable cover, which makes weekly or fortnightly washing realistic. Vacuum hair between washes and air the bed regularly.

Replace a bed when the foam stays flat, the stuffing clumps or your dog starts chewing at it, since chewed foam and stuffing are a swallowing hazard. A dog that suddenly starts digging or circling restlessly before lying down may be uncomfortable, which is worth mentioning to your vet.

Beds for crates and travel

Medium dogs often spend time in a crate, and a bed sized to the crate floor keeps them comfortable without bunching up. Measure the interior of the crate and choose a bed or pad that lies flat inside it.

For trips, a washable outdoor bed with a removable cover works well in the car, at a campsite or at a friend's house, and it gives your dog a familiar place to settle somewhere new. Shake it out and wash the cover after each trip.

What size bed for a medium dog?

Measure your dog lying stretched out from nose to base of tail and add 6 to 12 inches, or measure curled up and add a few inches for a round bed.

Is memory foam good for medium dogs?

Yes, especially for active and older dogs. It reduces pressure points and supports joints. Choose a thick base so a heavier dog does not sink to the floor.

What is a good bed for a dog that gets hot?

A cooling gel memory foam bed or a raised bed with airflow underneath. Avoid deep plush beds in summer for dogs that run warm. Keep the bed out of direct sun as well.

How often should I replace my dog's bed?

When the foam stays flat, the filling clumps, or the bed is torn or chewed. A good bed with a washable cover can last several years.
