If you have a senior pup, you might have noticed that it’s becoming more difficult for them to get up off their bed. Like elder humans, older dogs can feel achy and may benefit from an orthopedic bed.
Dr. Tori Countner, DVM, claims that “orthopedic beds add an extra layer of support for dogs that have arthritis, achy joints, or mobility issues. Memory foam is ideal since it is a little firmer and prevents sagging so dogs can get up easier from their bed, and it gives extra support to joints.”
There are endless options for orthopedic doggie beds, and it can be overwhelming to know where to start. You want to ensure you get the best bed for your four-legged family member, and you want to make sure it’s the perfect size for them.
