What to Look for in a Cocker Spaniel Dog Bed
Did you know that Cocker Spaniels were originally bred for hunting? Yep, the beloved dainty Lady was originally a bird dog!
In fact, the “Cocker” part refers to her prey, the Woodcock.
So, what kind of bed do you get a dog that’s both dainty and, to her prey, daunting?
Here’s the good news: pretty much any type of bed is fine!
Cocker Spaniels aren’t major chewers unless they’re dealing with separation anxiety, so you don’t have to focus quite so much on the chew-proof factor.
They’re not particularly prone to joint issues, so you don’t have to go all out with an orthopedic bed.
So, what should you look for? Here are some features to consider:
- Something in the small to medium range (too much larger and it won’t feel cozy and secure).
- Easy to wipe clean, since they do shed a bit (less than other breeds, more than some).
- Fabric that won’t contribute to matting in their fur, as they’re prone to it (think about how your hair tangles more on certain materials).
Really, that’s about it, which leaves you with a huge range of options! Let’s check out my favorites.
