Four-legged friends quickly become family members, require communication and attention.
It is important to remember that not only good food and proper walks are necessary for a pet, but also their own home place. This is the inviolable territory of the dog, which should be comfortable, reliable, cozy. The bed disciplines the animal and the owner shows that the pet, like everyone else, has an individual sleeping area.
First of all, you should decide on the type of bed for your four-legged pet.
The type of resting place is a mattress, blanket or flat rug. This is the simplest, cheapest option and is more suitable for medium and large dogs.
The selection criteria for this type include:
A convenient format for resting a pet, which is not just a bedding, but a frame in the form of rollers or bumpers. Some models are equipped with legs, which helps to protect against drafts.
There are several types:
Bedding or textile covers are placed on hard beds. The convenience of a plastic lounger is the ability to rinse it well, while it will retain its shape.
Baskets woven from natural materials, such as wicker or rattan, are not particularly practical; dogs quickly gnaw them.
The frame of the basket can be made of wood or metal, and raised on legs. Models are relevant in homes with cold floors and drafts.
The type of own territory for a dog is a home kennel and can be of two types:
Some pets want to relax in solitude, not being under the gaze of household members. The houses are soft, cozy, warm, made of a frame and upholstery.
Models are more suitable for small breeds, an animal 25 centimeters tall will feel uncomfortable in the house. The house is original in its form, but not very convenient in terms of disinfection and washing.
Experts advise avoiding materials that quickly become unusable, absorb dirt, and wipe.
Models made of:
These materials have a small abrasion cycle, according to a special Martindale scale. Animal manipulations such as digging, felting, biting and rubbing are only measured in a few thousand on the scale, which is very unreliable. Wiping and washing occurs quickly, the appearance deteriorates, strength is lost. An additional problem is stains, which are very difficult to remove from such coatings.
An alternative is a nylon base, which is soft and does not absorb moisture. Excellent cleaning and stain removal performance. An additional advantage of faux fur is comfort for the pet.
Small and dense granules, balls provide decent softness. Experts advise avoiding natural fillers, which can later become a breeding ground for parasites.
Preferred filling options from:
There is a table of correspondence between the length of the dog's nose and tail in relation to the size of the lounger.
Nose-tail length, cm | Bed, size, cm |
---|---|
60 or less | S (15x47x64) |
61-90 | M (25x70x90) |
91-120 | L (26х97х117) |
For large breeds, it is necessary to equip high and soft beds. Features of the structure of large dogs: their joints should be provided with comfortable softness.
Dogs cannot distinguish between red and yellow-green. The shift in color gamut affected their perception. As a blue color, they perceive all shades in the spectrum from purple to blue. Green, yellow colors - for dogs has a yellowish gray background, and red is a deep gray. But gray color they have a lot of shades.
The top litter is very often made with a zipper, so that there are no difficulties when removing for washing. However, it is important to remember that any pet is not averse to fooling around. The safe location of dangerous protruding parts that can injure the dog when jumping and somersaulting should be provided and checked.
The anti-vandal version is designed for extremely active dogs that aggressively wield their teeth and claws.
An important criterion is the correspondence of the height of the dog with the size of the bed.
Larger dogs require thicker and more voluminous beds that do not push through.
Caring for a pet's sleeping place takes a lot of time, you should pay attention to the type of cleaning and the possibility of washing.
We should not forget about the nature of the ward, perhaps he loves comfortable solitude.
