POOCH POUCH SIZING
There are 3 ways of determining the size of pet bed you would need:
• Dog breed
• Weight of your dog

When in doubt, please use all three types of determination to select the correct pet bed.

ONE SIZE DOESN'T FIT ALL
Measure and weigh your pet to find the right size bed. Please be aware that doing just one or the other may result in the wrong choice.
Example would be a Whippet weighting in at 11kg would have a totally different body dimension than a Corgi at the same weight. Be aware, these are approximations. Another example; the breed Pug has a small back length but the breed is very compact but high in kilo’s.
Because of its compactness it will be hard for the breed to really “curl” in the basket. For that reason you have to size up to an M eventhough its backlength will suggest a size S. The kilo’s will determine a size M.
MEASURING YOUR PET
Measure your dog in in his sleeping position; from neck to the base of the tail. Then add approximately 5cm to determine bed length or diameter. This ensures that your dog doesn’t feel cramped or as if falling off the bed.
YOUR PET SLEEPING STYLE
Does your pet stretch out or curl up when they sleep? Younger pets tend to curl up more when they sleep because their bodies and spine are more flexible. Older pets tend to stretch out.
Observe your pet’s sleeping habits before you choose your pet’s bed. Do they like to curl up in a ball or sprawl out most of the time? Do they always tuck themselves in a corner, or do they lie down in the middle of the room? Do they look for the most comfortable cushion they can find, or does your dog flop down anywhere, including the hardwood floor? If your dog likes to stretch out, you may want to consider buying a larger pet bed. If your dog likes to curl up most of the times, you ay want to consider a pet bed that fits exactly.
WHEN IN DOUBT
We recommend always to get the larger size. A bit bigger won't hurt as long as it will fit in your room. Look at the dimensions (not the size) and the weight load listed to double check that you are picking the right size.
