When bed time comes after a long day, don’t you love climbing into a warm cozy bed with a quality comfortable mattress and a soft pillow to put our heads on? If you didn’t sleep on that comfortable mattress, how would your body feel getting out of the bed the next day? I know mine would be pretty stiff and sore. If your dog doesn’t have a quality mattress to sleep on, shame on you. Where does he sleep, does he sleep on the cold floor, tile or outside on the concrete? If he is, you are putting your dog at risk of sore muscles, joints and the possibility of arthritis. If you have you provided your best buddy with a quality, well padded bed to fill all of his hours of sleep, you are taking the right measures to help keep your pup healthier. He is not able to tell you himself that gee, "this tile is sure cold or sleeping on the concrete sure makes it hard for me to get my body up in the morning". He relies on you, his owner to take care of him. Here are some benefits that a quality pet bed offers your dog The bed provides your dog with his own space and sense of security.
