What Is the Best Dog Bed? Saatva Dog Bed Comparison

The Saatva Dog Bed is hailed as one of the best on the market, featuring responsive micro-coils for spinal alignment and durability. It’s suitable for all ages, especially older or mobility-challenged dogs, and the micro-coils help prevent flattening over time. The high-performance fabric cover is water-repellent and breathable, with a non-slip base. Available in three sizes and colors, it outshines competitors using foam or fiberfill. Responsive micro-coils make it a top choice for dog owners prioritizing comfort, support, and longevity.

If you have pets, then chances are you like to spoil them with the best of everything—food, toys, and yes, even the comfiest, coziest bed. (Even though—let’s be real—sometimes they’d much prefer to snuggle with you in your bed!)

What is the best dog bed? Saatva Dog Bed vs. competitors

Wondering what’s the best dog bed for large dogs or what’s the best orthopedic dog bed? Here’s a comparison of the most popular dog beds, starting with our Saatva Dog Bed.

Saatva Dog Bed

In our humble opinion, nothing comes close to the Saatva Dog Bed. That’s because it’s the first dog bed with responsive micro-coils for healthy spinal alignment and ease of motion for pets of all ages.

It’s particularly excellent for older dogs or dogs that have mobility issues. The coil design also prevents it from flattening out over time, a common issue with fiber- or foam-filled pet beds. In fact, our dog bed is designed to hold its shape and support longer than regular dog beds without micro-coils.

Plus, the Saatva Dog Bed contains luxurious plush comfort fibers that are baffle quilted to prevent shifting and provide a cuddle-worthy sleep surface that’s cozy yet breathable.

The Saatva Dog Bed also features a high-performance gusseted fabric cover with pet-safe water-repellent barrier protection. This is the same technology used in waterproof outerwear. The cover is removable and can be spot-treated to remove dirt and stains.

This unique fabric finish repels liquids easily while still allowing air to flow freely, keeping the bed cover breathable. The non-slip base helps keep the pet bed in place, so you don’t have to worry about it slipping or sliding.

The Saatva Dog Bed is available in three colors and two cover materials: Natural Linen, Taupe Boucle, and Slate Boucle. Natural Linen is made from a blend of 83% Polyester, 10% Acrylic, and 7% Linen, while Taupe Boucle and Slate Boucle are made with a blend of 98% Polyester and 4% Acrylic.

You can even add an extra removable cover to your order when you buy a Saatva Dog Bed—that way, when the time comes, you can replace the cover so the dog bed is like new.

Finally, the Saatva Dog Bed comes in three sizes: small, medium, and large, so you can easily find the perfect match for your pet.

  • Small (18” W x 24” L x 4” H) is ideal for extra small to small dogs, puppies, and cats and comfortably supports up to 45 pounds.
  • Medium (25” W x 35” L x 4” H) is ideal for small to medium dogs and comfortably supports up to 90 pounds.
  • Large (34” W x 44” L x 4” H) is ideal for medium to large dogs or two small or medium “bonded pair” dogs who like to share a bed and comfortably supports up to 120 pounds.

Other dog beds: Casper, FurHaven, and more

Unlike the Saatva Dog Bed, most other dog beds on the market are made with foam or fiberfill, not with responsive coils. While foam or fiber can be supportive to a dog’s joints, responsive micro-coils are specifically designed to provide support and ease of movement, especially for older dogs or those with mobility issues. What’s more, fiber or foam dog beds may flatten out more easily over time and have to be replaced sooner. Foam in pet beds may also contain harmful chemicals.

Additionally, many of the other dog beds available don’t have covers made from high-quality performance fabric. That means their covers are more susceptible to wear and tear sooner and may be more difficult to clean.

The Casper Dog Bed is made with two layers of foam: one layer of visco elastic memory foam and the other layer of polyurethane support foam. The cover on the Casper Dog Bed, meanwhile, is made from a blend of synthetic materials: nylon, polyester, and olefin. There are three color choices: Blue, Gray, and Sand.

Another popular dog bed brand is FurHaven. They sell a variety of dog beds, including a sofa dog bed, donut dog bed, and orthopedic dog bed. All of FurHaven’s dog beds contain foam filling. Some of FurHaven’s dog beds are made with removable covers, while others are one piece. One advantage is that FurHaven’s dog beds come in extended sizes, ranging from small to jumbo, to accommodate a large variety of dogs.

Other brands that make foam dog beds include Majestic, Orvis, Frisco, and Lay Lo.

Majestic makes a variety of dog beds, some containing high loft polyester fill and others containing memory foam. Care instructions depend on which type of fill you select and whether the dog bed has a removable cover.

Orvis makes dog beds in different shapes with different fillings. Some of the brand’s dog beds are filled with foam, while others are filled with polyester fibers.

Frisco also sells a variety of dog beds, including pillows and bolsters, filled with foam and featuring a removable cover for cleaning.

Lay Lo’s dog beds, meanwhile, contain a combination of polyurethane foam and poly-fill. They offer many removable cover designs, including plaid and patchwork.

FAQs

What type of bed is best for dogs?

The type of bed that’s best for dogs depends on your dog’s specific needs. There are many shapes out there, ranging from pillows to donuts to sofas. As for filling, foam can be a supportive option, but know that it may flatten out over time and could potentially contain harmful chemicals.

A dog bed made from responsive micro-coils, such as the Saatva Dog Bed, will keep its shape longer and is a great option for dogs of all ages, particularly older dogs and dogs with mobility issues.

When it comes to dog bed size, you’ll want to consider your dog’s weight. Most dog beds are available ranging in size from small to large, and brands should offer a chart showing how much weight each size can hold. Small dog beds may even be suitable for cats.

Are foam beds good for dogs?

Foam beds can be a good option for dogs. Memory foam helps cushion joints, however, dog beds made of foam can flatten over time, leaving you having to replace your dog bed frequently. Additionally, research from the Ecology Center finds that foam in pet beds could potentially contain harmful chemicals that may be bad for your dog’s health.

An alternative filling option is micro-coils, as featured in the Saatva Dog Bed. Responsive micro-coils provide healthy spinal alignment and ease of movement for pets of all ages. Plus, the micro-coils help the dog bed retain its shape for longer.
