Measuring for a pet bed is a little different than measuring furniture. You need to measure your pet's body to determine the correct bed size. We require Width, Length, and Thickness.
Step 1: Pet Bed Thickness
Select your cushion thickness (2 to 5 inches).
(Tip: Larger/Heavier dogs benefit from thicker foam (4-5") for better joint support.)
Step 2: Pet Bed Width (Side to Side)
Measure your pet from the bottom of their paws to the top of their shoulders.
Add 5" for small pets, up to 10" for large pets to allow stretching room.
Step 3: Pet Bed Length (Front to Back)
Measure your pet from their nose to the base of their tail.
Add 8" for small pets, up to 12" for large pets.
Expert Measuring Tips
Pet bed dimensions are adjustable in 1 inch increments. Please round your measurements to the nearest whole inch.
If your dog likes to stretch out fully, err on the side of a larger size. If they curl up in a ball, a smaller size may suffice.
If this bed is for a crate, simply measure the inside floor dimensions of the crate (Length & Width) for a perfect fit.
Use a metal tape measure or yardstick to measure your pet while they are standing or lying down.
