Orthopedic Memory Foam Beds For Your Dogs

Your dogs are getting older. They move slower, don't enjoy to run, jump or play like before. Then it is the time to think about offering them an orthopedic memory foam bed. It is also the case when your dogs have arthritis or hip dysplasia, are recovering after a surgery or accident.

Orthopedic beds offer more comfort and your dogs can rest and sleep better in a bed that diminishes their aches and pains. They are also closer to the ground and your dogs can access it with more ease.

The best orthopedic dogs are the memory foam ones because they offer the optimum comfort and support.

Memory foam is polyurethane with additional chemicals increasing its viscosity and density. It is often referred to as "visco-elastic" polyurethane foam, or low-resilience polyurethane foam (see LRPu). Higher-density memory foam softens in reaction to body heat, allowing it to mold to a warm body in a few minutes. A lower-density memory foam is pressure-sensitive and molds quickly to the shape of a body pressing against it, returning to its original shape once the pressure is removed. - Wikipedia

The memory foam takes the contour of the body and removes the muscles and joints pressure, thus being beneficial in reducing the pains. The body weight is evenly distributed giving your dogs the advantage of a restful sleep. Another advantage is brought by the breathable feature - so, they will keep your dogs warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather.

Memory foam beds are available in different dimensions (small, medium, large) and have various designs like bolster, round, pillow and rectangular. Which is the best shape to choose? It depends on sleeping habits of your dogs. Please, read the previous article.

When buying an orthopedic memory foam bed, do not forget, it has to be:

• made of materials with stain resistant features
• highly resistant to bacteria, mold, parasites, allergens, insects and dust mites
• washable

Orthopedic memory foam dog beds are an awesome solution for the good rest and sleep of older dogs and of those having orthopedic problems.
