These days' people like to spoil their pets rotten. No longer do dogs sleep in a cardboard box under the stairs. There are hundreds of different dog beds on the market, which can often make choosing one for your new canine friend a very difficult task.

Dog Sofas

A popular choice for many pet owners is the new dog sofa. These can be used as either a large stylish bed or a comfy chill out area for lounging after a long walk. Ideal for small and medium sized dogs is the Trixie 'Charmel' Dog Sofa Bed. This small cosy sofa is both comfortable and stylish with a swish cosy design featuring a comfortable suede material. This dog sofa bed is available in a range of neutral colours and will also add a beautiful added piece of furniture to your home. To really spoil your dog, why not splash out and go for a Trixie 'Paolo' Dog Sofa. This has more of a sophisticated and classy style with leather arms and a large suede sofa cushion. This classical design will add a great feature to your home and includes high quality foam padding, ensure complete comfort for man's best friend. All dog sofas come with machine washable cushion covers and are made with easy clean materials so you won't have to worry about muddy paw stains.

Blankets and Cushions

If dog sofa's seem a little OTT or you simply don't have the room, why not opt for a blanket or cushion. Blankets are perfect for adding extra warmth during the winter months. Dog blankets come in a wide range of price ranges, colours and materials. The dog blanket is ideal for furniture and cars to protect upholstery from shedding fur and dirty paws.

Dog cushions are perfect for trips away with your dog as they're light weight and easy to carry. Cushions are often considered as a bed for small dogs; however they can come in a wide range of sizes and colours suitable for any breed. The 'Scoopy' Dog Cushion for example, has thick 4cm padding and is available in nine different sizes.

Dog Beds

Nowadays dog beds come in a wide range of shapes, sizes and materials. For something more traditional, opt for the bucketed styled dog bed with fleecy styles. This style of dog bed is available in a wide range of colours and patterns, including the Trixie 'Charly' Dog Bed with cute paw prints for a fun and appropriate style. On the other hand the Trixie 'Tamayo' Dog Bed, is perfect for dogs with a crazy and wacky personality, as it features a unique circle shape and multi coloured stripes. This particular bed can be purchased in three different sizes, suiting a wide range of breeds.

For pet owners who really want their dog to be comfortable, why not opt for a memory foam dog bed. Very similar to the memory foam we use to help with joint and back problems, the memory foam dog bed is useful for older dogs who may struggle to sleep in the traditional dog bed.

Dog mats

Nylon and fleece dog mats are ideal to put in the boot of your car for protecting upholstery from hair and dirt. The dog matt can be fitted and removed easily and can be used either on car journeys or in the home. The non slip material will also stop the matt from slipping around in the car. A real treat for your dog and a current trend on the dog bed market is veterinary thermal bedding. A fleece mat to make your dog's sleeping quarters warm and comfy even on cold hard flooring.

Whatever your dog's size, be sure to purchase a good quality dog bed to ensure your pet is warm and comfortable.
