Do you ever look at your dog’s bed…you know, the lumpy round stuffed fleece mat they sleep on and wonder how comfortable can it really be? Well, it doesn’t compare to memory foam dog bed.

Memory Foam Dog Bed uses the identical technology as the ones made for us. They are soft enough to reduce pain in their joints, yet firm enough to satisfy their instinctual need to sleep on a solid ground. This means when your dog lies on his or her bed, it will conform to their body and provide them with perfect support. Many dogs get aches and pains, especially around the hips. However with this bed their tender pressure points and tension on the joints are eliminated and your dog will rest and sleep in a more comfortable position.

Memory foam was developed by NASA and it has proven to be the most comfortable surface for sleeping whether it’s for humans or animals.

A very important feature of a true orthopedic memory foam dog bedis the supportive layer underneath the top layer of foam. Without this bottom layer there is nothing to stop your pet from sinking to the floor and now a painful pressure point is created. Therefore the foam bed is *not* orthopedic.

These materials are NOT memory foam and do not provide the orthopedic qualities of real slow recovery visco-elastic memory foam:

• Shredded memory foam!!!
• High memory fiber fill
• Egg crate foam
• Convoluted foam
• Medical grade hospital foam
• ‘High density’ foam (what is that?)
• Foam chips
• Recycled fiber
• Batting
• Cedar
• Polyester fiber

Another benefit for your dog is healthy blood circulation allowing the best blood flow to their organs and tissues. Healthy blood flow aids in faster and more complete healing.

Did I mention a memory foam dog bed lastslonger than those ordinary dog beds?! The fabric and the foam are both made of commercial grade so they last longer. This means you spend less replacing that shabby worn out dog bed year after year. They are also easy to clean. Just unzip the cover and toss it in the washer and dryer.

If your dog suffers from any one of the following ailments such as, hip problems, arthritis or joint pain then a memory foam dog bed is a must! Even if they aren’t showing any signs of these problems when they are young most dogs will suffer from joint pain at some stage in their lives, using a dog memory foam bed is a great preventative measure.

Be sure you measure your dog properly so you purchase the correct size bed. Measure your doggie from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail and from the floor to the head. This will give you the information you will need to pick the correct diameter of your dog’s new bed.

You will quickly realize after you purchase a memory foam dog bed, your dog will get good quality rest, wake up refreshed and this is a major factor in his good overall dog health. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing your dog happier and able to move easier so they can get the exercise they need.

Search for manufacturers who place individual consideration to the needs of dogs and larger dog breeds. Their beds should be made of high grade, sturdy materials. The orthopedic memory foam in an orthopedic bed responds to your pet’s body heat and heaviness to match every curve and angle. Studies have shown memory foam lessens tossing and turning in humans nearly 90%…there’s no reason this can’t be this same for your dog.

Another point to keep in mind when purchasing, a memory foam is graded by ‘pounds’. The lowest quality is three pounds and the highest quality foam available on the market is five pounds. Aside from providing more comfort and support for your dog, the five pound will last much longer which means less money spent in the long run with replacement beds.
