Do you have a king-sized bed or are you dreaming of getting one? We all want to have a large bed to sleep comfortably at night, and the same concept applies even to our large dogs because the bigger the bed is, the better — but that doesn't end there. Yes, there are big dog beds in Australia that you can easily find online or at your local stores, but how can you make sure that they are good enough for your dog's needs?  

For sure, you do not want to risk buying a dog bed that your dog won’t even end up using. There are many instances where in a dog bed simply goes to waste. It’s either your dog does not find it comfortable or it ends up being a pile of mess because your dog decides that it is his/her new chew toy. Problem solved! Here’s a checklist of the qualities you should be checking when looking for the best large dog bed that you can get in Australia!  

 Your dog bed needs to be big enough for large dogs! 

It goes without saying that you cannot force a labrador to squeeze his/herself into a bed that is just meant for mediudogs. When you buy a large dog bed for your large dog, the important thing is to make sure that your dog can lie down comfortably with enough space around his/her body. Before you get a large dog bed, make sure that you measure your dog’s body and then add 6 to 12 inches to guarantee that there is enough space for your big pooch. If it does not fit into the standard, this might very well just be a pillow for large dogs.   

Your large dog bed needs to be hygienic 

Dogs of all sizes and breeds enjoy their fair share of playtime outdoors. As fur parents, your main concern about this is to make sure that other than the fact that they can get plenty of exercises, they are also kept clean, tidy and healthy. A big part of keeping your dogs clean is by keeping their areas clean as well. This includes their pillow, blankets and large dog beds. When you buy a large dog bed, best to ask the local store, or the brand itself about ease of cleaning. Let’s face it, dogs can be messy and as fur parents, we do not always have the time in the world to keep washing and wringing dog beds that become a struggle to dry. Check out waterproof dog beds that save you a lot of time and energy, or a one with removable covers that you can pop into the washing machine anytime.

Your dog bed needs to be stylish 

Nobody wants to have any piece of furniture at home that looks distracting or off together with your interior decor and all the other elements in your house may it be a stylish lounger or your brand new modular couch. It is not necessarily a must but it would be good if your dog bed blends well with your interior decor. The pet industry has evolved over the years which gave birth to more stylish and luxurious dog beds. Check out some styles that fit you and your dog’s aesthetic.
