Cloud Velvet Bed Size GuideUpdated 9 hours ago
Choosing the right size Cloud Velvet Bed depends on your dog’s size, weight, and sleeping style. Because every dog is built differently, weight should be used as a general guide rather than the only deciding factor.
Cloud Velvet Bed Dimensions
Small
- Overall size: 23.6" diameter × 9.4" high
- Inner sleeping area: 14.2" diameter
Best for small dogs who like to curl up
Medium
- Overall size: 29.5" diameter × 10.2" high
- Inner sleeping area: 19.3" diameter
Best for small-to-medium dogs or smaller dogs who enjoy extra room
Large
- Overall size: 35.4" diameter × 11" high
- Inner sleeping area: 24.4" diameter
Best for medium-to-large dogs or dogs who prefer more room to stretch out
How Do I Choose the Right Size?
The inner sleeping area is the most important measurement to consider. The Cloud Velvet Bed has thick, plush bolstered sides, so the usable sleeping space is smaller than the bed's overall diameter.
For the best fit, measure your dog while they are lying in their normal sleeping position.
- If your dog curls up: Measure from their nose to the base of their tail while curled up.
- If your dog stretches out: Measure your dog from nose to the base of the tail while lying down and choose a bed with enough inner space for them to comfortably stretch.
What If My Dog Is Between Sizes?
We recommend sizing up.
The Cloud Velvet Bed is designed to feel cozy and secure, but your dog should still have enough room to reposition themselves comfortably. If your dog is close to the maximum size for a bed, prefers to stretch out, has a long body, or you simply aren't sure which size to choose, the larger size is usually the better option.
Should I Choose a Size Based on Breed?
Breed can be helpful as a reference, but we don't recommend choosing a bed based on breed alone.
Two dogs of the same breed can have very different weights, body lengths, and sleeping preferences. Measuring your dog and comparing that measurement with the inner sleeping area will give you the most accurate fit.
My Dog Likes to Stretch Out. Should I Size Up?
Yes. If your dog regularly sleeps stretched out rather than curled into a ball, we recommend choosing the larger size.
Remember that the plush bolster takes up part of the bed's overall dimensions, so always compare your dog's measurements to the inner diameter, not just the total bed size.
Can Two Dogs Share One Cloud Velvet Bed?
They can if there is enough room for both dogs to lie comfortably together.
If your dogs frequently cuddle or share beds, measure them while lying together and compare that measurement with the inner sleeping area. We recommend choosing the Large whenever possible for dogs who plan to share.
Still Not Sure Which Size to Choose?
Measure your dog in their favorite sleeping position and compare that measurement with the inner dimensions:
- Small: 14.2" inner diameter
- Medium: 19.3" inner diameter
- Large: 24.4" inner diameter
When choosing between two sizes, we recommend going with the larger size. A little extra room is usually better than a bed that feels too small.
