Pillow Dog Beds

Due to popular demand, many pillow dog beds contain cedar chips, bits or shavings because it is a natural way to help prevent flea and tick infestation, and it also helps with odor control. However, it's important to keep in mind that some people and some dogs are allergic to Cedar Dog Beds. It's a good idea to know what is used for the filling in pillow dog beds before you buy one and bring it into your home.

Many people are surprised to learn that Heated Dog Beds are not at all uncommon, for indoors or outdoors. These are terrific if you live in a cold-weather climate. Likewise, if you live in a hot-weather climate, you may want to look at our Dog Cooling Beds.

An aggressive, anxious dog can destroy an ordinary dog bed in a matter of minutes by tearing, chewing and clawing it. And it's not just big dogs destroying large dog beds. Even small dogs can destroy small dog beds if they put their mind to it.

If your dog is prone to excessive chewing and clawing, pillow dog beds may not be for you and you may want to browse in our Raised Dog Beds section for chew proof dog beds. There you'll find dog beds made with frames constructed of commercial-grade PVC plastic as well as heavy-duty fabric that is practically indestructible. Some people call them PVC dog beds. Still others sometimes refer to them as plastic dog beds, but in reality plastic dog beds are beds made with filling from recycled plastic bottles.

Injured dogs or senior dogs suffering from joint problems or arthritis will have an easier time getting on and off of pillow dog beds because there are no side cushions to step over. If you have an aging or injured dog, one of our pillow dog beds is probably a good choice for your pet.

If you are like most people, you'd like to be able to launder your pet's bed from time to time. No matter what style dog bed you choose or where you buy it from, we recommend that you check the manufacturer's washing instructions. Not all dog beds offer the convenience of removable, machine-washable covers.

Most PetFrenzy pillow dog beds have a removable cover that is machine washable, and many can also go in the dryer. We also have quite a few styles that allow you to toss the entire bed in the washer, not just the cover. You'll find washing instructions on our website for all pillow dog beds.

The length of time between washing your dog's bed will largely depend on your dog's lifestyle. Naturally, if your dog spends a lot of time outdoors, his or her bed will get dirty faster than a dog that spends less time outdoors.
