If you have a destructive pup, we know how challenging it can be to find a bed that can stand up to extreme wear and tear. Though your dog may be prone to chewing on their belongings, it doesn’t mean that they don’t deserve a cozy bed to snuggle in to after a long day.

We’ll dive into what makes a good dog bed, what makes a great chew-proof bed, and the beds we trust to stand up to canine destruction!


What makes a good dog bed?

When it comes to choosing the perfect dog bed, there are a few things to consider. Your dog bed of choice not only needs to stand up to chewing but also cater to your pup’s specific needs at the same time.

Some qualities of a good dog bed include:

  • Appropriately sized and constructed for how your specific dog likes to sleep. Dogs tend to stick to sleeping positions that either fall under the sprawled sleeper or curled up sleeping position category. If your pup likes to sprawl out and stretch to fit their bed, they will likely benefit from a flatbed that allows them to stretch their limbs. If your pup chooses to curl up in a ball when they sleep or snuggle into blankets, they’d likely enjoy a bed that cradles them with pillowed edges.
  • Memory foam is important when looking for the ideal dog bed, as each dog can benefit from the support of memory foam. Memory foam beds will properly support your dog’s joints as they sleep comfortably, and are necessary from dogs that suffer from joint conditions or chronic pain of any kind.
  • Contain a concealed zipper or velcro to keep chewable parts away from the dog. While we hope that dogs will choose not to chew on their bed, it’s best to prevent them from any temptation. By covering up the parts of the bed that catch your dog’s eye, you can help to prevent any damage or consumed zippers.
  • Tough, or even chew-proof covers are necessary when choosing the perfect dog bed for your pup. These covers not only prevent your dog from being able to easily damage the bed but also protects against the daily messes that dogs can bring along. These covers are often waterproof, stain proof, and even strong enough to withstand being outdoors.
  • A gel-cooled or temperature-controlled layer to help regulate the temperature in the dog is essential for dogs in all climates. These temperature-controlled beds promote comfort by keeping your dog cool during the hot summer months or keeping your pup nice and cozy during the winter.
  • The perfect bed should be practical for your pup to use. For example, if your dog is old and arthritis, their bed shouldn’t force them to have to jump off the ground and make their way into a raised bed. The bed you choose should reflect your dog’s needs.

No Bed Is Completely Chew Proof

While some beds are known to stand up to even the toughest of pups, it’s important to know that no bed will last forever. Even the top of the line dog beds will fall victim to time, wear and tear, and other damage that can happen as the years’ past. Some facts to consider when choosing a quality dog bed include:

  • Wear-and-tear will eventually claim all dog beds. While each bed will lose its effect at some point, there are ways to keep your dog bed in good condition as long as possible. Try your best to keep your dog bed indoors as often as you can, wash your dog bed cover in approved soaps on approved wash settings, try not to expose the bed to excessive moisture. 
  • Beds with high-quality material will cost more but will last longer in the long run. Beds with quality material are more of an investment but will save you money in the long run with not having to replace dog beds too often. 
  • Reputable sellers can help ensure a strong, and reliable dog bed for your furry friend. Though it can be tempting to go with a less known company that may offer a better price, it’s probably best to stick with the brand that has established a solid reputation in the dog bed world.
