Size Guide
Finding the right size dog bed makes the difference between a bed your dog actually uses and one that ends up as a floor decoration. Use the chart below alongside the visual guide to pick the right fit.
How to Measure Your Dog
With your dog lying down in their natural curled or stretched-out sleep position, measure from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail. Add 6–12 inches to that measurement for extra room to stretch — dogs shift position throughout the night and need space to fully extend.
General Size Chart by Weight
| Size | Dog Weight | Recommended Bed Length | Example Breeds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small (S) | Up to 20 lbs | 20–24 in | Chihuahua, Pomeranian, Yorkie |
| Medium (M) | 20–40 lbs | 28–32 in | Beagle, Cocker Spaniel, French Bulldog |
| Large (L) | 40–70 lbs | 36–40 in | Labrador, Golden Retriever, Boxer |
| Extra Large (XL) | 70–100+ lbs | 44–48+ in | German Shepherd, Great Dane, Mastiff |

Not Sure Which Bed to Choose?
If your dog is between sizes, size up — it's always better for a dog to have a little extra room than to feel cramped. For dogs over 70 lbs, check out our Orthopedic Dog Bed XL, built for dogs up to 100 lbs. For small dogs under 20 lbs, the COJA FlexMat and Snuggle Nest are great fits.
