Dogs don’t need soft beds, but instead need to rest on a firm surface;too-soft pillow beds don’t offer the support needed for comfortable rest and
healthy joints, and an older dog who sinks into a plush bed may have trouble
getting into and out of it. This doesn’t mean he should sleep on the
floor—that’s too firm. Instead, provide a bed with memory foam or a chambered
polyfill sleep surface. A memory foam bed conforms to your dog’s body to
relieve pressure, distribute his weight evenly, and provide tailored-for-him
comfort.
Dog beds USA Many dogs need these
orthopedic beds and they aren’t just for older dogs: Memory foam offers
just-right joint and muscle support for a lifetime of comfort, so they’re ideal
for younger, growing dogs, too.
