NextImg:Our pups put the best dog beds of 2024 to the test — these are our top picks

If you’re a puppy parent, you want what’s best for your dog (treats, hugs, etc.), especially when it comes to catching zzz’s. There’s nothing quite as heartwarming like seeing your furry friend peacefully snooze the day away with its favorite toys. All while we foot the bills, they grace us with deep, deep sighs filled with the day’s hardships.

However, not all dog beds are created equal; in fact, finding the perfect bed can take some time for you and your picky sleeper.

There is a bed for every type of dog, whether a puppy or a senior. If your dog has joint issues or is a little more brittle with age, we suggest trying a bed with orthopedic support to help alleviate any pressure points that may struggle with as it rests. If your dog is a chewer or a puppy in training, you might want something more durable or waterproof for those not yet potty-trained pups.

And probably the most important factor we haven’t even discussed is style. Whatever you choose doesn’t have to be ugly; we found a large selection of beds that look ultra-modern, chic, and exactly what a designer would dream up from your favorite online pet stores.

Chewy

Pros:

Cons:

Comfort your best friend with a bed that feels like a constant hug. Our commerce editor, Camyrn La Sala, swears by this bed for her 14-year-old pup, who absolutely loves it. “She was never much of a dog bed user, but after her arthritis started to kick in a few years ago, my parents bought her this fluffy donut-style bed, and now we have one for every room in the house.”

It’s available in 11 shades from x-small to xx-large.

Pros:

Cons:

Made from the same crushed foam you and I choose to sleep on, this supremely comfortable dog bed is ideal for senior dogs with achy joints or those who love to be pampered.

Lydia Moynihan, our Finance Correspondent, didn’t hesitate to get not one but two for her pup, Percy, singing its praises: “They are easy to clean and look quite stylish.”

The bed boasts extreme durability and is machine washable — always a bonus. Moynihan also loved the many colors to choose from, a plus for all your dècor needs.

Pendleton Glacier National Park Pillow Dog Bed with Removable Cover
Chewy

Pros:

Cons:

Founded in 1863, Pendleton is about as American as American gets. This clean, sleek, stylish dog bed is available in numerous prints, one of which will surely add a subtle sophistication wherever it lands in your home. For us, it was the bright white Glacier National Park print that was perfect for our home — and for our three rescue dogs.

With an outer made from a much more practical polyester and acrylic fleece fabric, instead of the iconic wool for which Pendleton is known, I have lost count of how many times it has gone into the wash dingy and dirty only to emerge as bright white as the day I brought it home. After more than three years of ownership, the only complaint I have is that, if left without attention, some slight pilling may occur. Nothing five minutes with a fabric shaver can’t take care of.

MidWest Cat & Dog Carrier Bed
Chewy

Pros:

Cons:

Meaghan Roche, senior manager of SEO commerce, chooses to pamper her pooch with an alternative choice. “This has proven to be the perfect cushion for our 1-year-old Irish Setter’s crate training,” she said. “It’s been so effective that the crate has become his preferred spot for feeling calm and secure, especially for sleeping.” 

Roche appreciates the versatility of the five sizing options, especially as her dog has grown and required different crate sizes. “Most importantly,” she added, “with a large breed like our big, red, often-shedding dog, this bed washes incredibly easily and remains affordable.”

Pros:

Cons:

Your pet will want to sink into this budget-friendly bed for a nice long siesta. And at this low price, you may want two or three for travel, crates, or even in your office. After all, your best friend wants to be wherever you are.

Casper Bolster Dog Bed
Chewy

Pros:

Cons:

If your pet loves to dig, this nylon cover was designed to replicate the textured feeling your dog gets when it paws at the earth. It makes your dog feel cozy, safe, and right at home. Comes in three colors: small, medium, or large.

Canine Creations by Arlee Orthopedic Chew Resistant Eco-Friendly Memory Foam Bolster Dog & Cat Bed
Chewy

Pros:

Cons:

Give your pup a boost with this orthopedic bolstered bed. It has a waterproof insert that creates a barrier between the removable, washable cover and the memory foam, making it easy to clean.

Each bed was tested by several New York Post pups to ensure quality assurance. It passed the following tests:

Why is it important to choose the right dog bed?

Choosing the right dog bed is crucial for your dog’s comfort and health. The right bed supports restful sleep, which is essential for your dog’s well-being, especially if your dog has specific needs, like joint issues, or is prone to chewing.

What should I consider when choosing a dog bed?

Consider your dog’s age, size, sleeping habits, and any special needs they may have. For example, older dogs might need orthopedic support, while puppies might require durable, chew-proof options.

Are there specific beds for dogs with joint issues?

Yes, for dogs with joint issues or senior dogs who are more brittle, an orthopedic bed is highly recommended to alleviate pressure points and provide better support.

What bed type is best for a puppy or a dog that chews?

Look for durable, chew-proof beds for puppies or dogs that chew. Waterproof beds are also a good choice for puppies that are not yet potty-trained.
