These types of dog beds are made from medical Orthopedic foam or Memory foam just like the ones made for humans. You might want to consider purchasing this type of dog bed for an older dog with back, joint or muscle problems and very thin dogs like greyhounds who would appreciate the extra padding because they are so bony. These dog beds are made from extra thick foam any where from 3 to 5 inches more than the average foam pad which helps to relieve joint pressure and reduce muscle stress.

Bagel and Doughnut style dog beds are perfect for dogs who like to curled up when they sleep. They perfect for the dog who wants to feel safe and secure. Most of these type beds are purchased for smaller dogs, but large dog like them too. Many of these beds come in a large or extra large for the large dog that like that secure and warm spot to sleep. These types of dog beds usually have a very soft foam center covered with material and a plush filled cushion all the way around the bed, so they may not be as easy to clean as cushion dog beds when they get dirty.
Nesting Dog Beds
Nesting or true Bolstered type dog beds are beds with raised sides. They can come in several different styles like all four sides raised around a filled center making a box shape that your dog climb into, three poly filled sides that surrounding a egg carton foam center with an opening for your dog to enter, or they could just have one raised side for your dog to lean against. Some of these beds even have orthopedic foam for older dogs that have stiff joints. This is the ideal dog bed for dogs who like to rest their head on a pillow or the arm of a sofa. Both large dogs and small dogs like nesting beds. Many of these types of bed come with zippered covers that are washable.

A well made dog bed will last a lot longer and save you money in the end.
