Memory Foam Machine Washable Mat Dog Beds
Provide a comfortable relaxation space for your beloved canine companion with memory foam machine washable mat dog beds. Their construction differs in relation to many other dog beds and you must take this into account before deciding on a type of dog bed to purchase.
Mat vs. basket style
Mat dog beds are very simple, as they sit flat on the ground with no rims or sides. This means that your dog can enter or leave their bed safely and quickly, as well as being able to stretch out as far as they like.
Dogs can overheat if they are on a padded surface for too long and many of them enjoy the coolness of the floor. A mat allows a dog to be half on the bed and half on the floor, as opposed to having to make an outright choice.
They are also beneficial for large dog breeds who may not fit into a standard, basket style bed. Mat beds tend to be similar in price to basket style beds, but it ultimately depends on what your dog likes. Most dogs do not mind and it is generally up to the owner.
Memory foam vs. filled cushion
Memory foam is a material that wraps around the body, providing comfort and support in all the right places. Whereas filled cushions go flat over time, memory foam maintains its properties for longer. It is also very helpful for older dogs or dogs that are prone to hip or joint problems. However, memory foam dog beds tend to be more expensive than filled cushion dog beds.
Washable vs. non washable
Washable dog beds have the advantage of being able to be washed easily, usually by being put in the washing machine. Non washable beds usually have a removable cover instead, but the actual filling can retain bad smells. You will pay more for a machine washable bed in its entirety, but it will help to reduce odour and discolouration in your dog's bed.
Designs and styles
Within memory foam machine washable mat dog beds there are various styles available to choose from. From paw prints and bone designs to plain minimalist cushions, there are a plethora of designs for you and your furry friend to choose from.
