  • Related Q&A

Why should pooches have to suffer with just a mat or rug on the floor while their owners are cuddling up in a posh bed with fluffy pillows and down-topped mattresses? Doesn't man's bet friend deserve some considerations?

Now your pet can sleep in style, as well, with a number of upscale dog beds on the market. What kind of bed you should get for your pooch depends on their needs.

If you have an older dog that's starting to creak and hurt in his old age, there are upscale dog beds designed to make them a little more comfortable. If you live in a colder climate that is uncomfortable for your pup, you can consider a heated pet bed that will keep their muscles and joint from tightening up. Another great upscale pet bed for older dogs is an orthopedic dog bed. Dogs are like people when it comes to old aching body parts as they age. A dog orthopedic bed has 8 or more inches of supporting foam, with a layer of fleece on the top for comfort, then a headrest pillow, so they can enjoy a great sleep.

If your pet hasn't gotten to the age where they need that kind of support yet, you may just want to let them show off a bit with fun, upscale dog beds. Some of the simple designs are large cushion or pillow beds that are personalized with the pooch's name on them. Others have even more style.

Some upscale dog beds are made to look more like people furniture than pet furniture. These upscale dog beds may look like sofas, albeit smaller than the one in your living room. These doggie sofas have cushions and look like the real thing, but have enough space for your dog to stretch out and be supported by thick foam. Additionally, you can select colors of these sofas to match your home in shades from terracotta to cool sky, silver and even Wedgewood.

For some pampered pooches, good upscale dog beds are all about the material. From microvelvet to suede and fleece, there are materials to meet even the most discerning pup's preferences.

If you have a dog that likes to get away from the public you can let them create their own little world in upscale dog beds that are designed like a pouch. Your pet can crawl inside and feel safe in their own den.

For the traveling hound, there are even upscale dogs beds to make sure they are cozy on the road, with a sleepover travel bed that rolls up and has shoulder straps for easy carrying, by a human. When you roll out the bed, it's not just some tired sleeping bag, but three layers of fiber filling for comfort, and inner cushions with fleece.

No longer do dogs have to be left with boring beds, the world of upscale dog beds has come a long way and has something for every k-9 taste.
