Designer Dog Bed With A Range Of Styles
By Rodger G Allenby
Most people think of a designer dog bed as the sort of thing
that goes a little "out there," where one dog might
appear to sleep in the back seat of a luxury car while another
would nap in a hammock held up by little palm trees.
That sort of eccentricity in dog beds does exist in some cases,
of course, while other custom dog beds spice things up by adding
a bit of outrageous style to the basic design of the bed. But
believe it or not, even eco-friendly or therapeutic beds fall
into the "designer" category, because they go beyond
the run of the mill.
Round Tent Beds Decorated With Jewels
Along with those beds that lean toward streamlined European elegance,
you’ll also find the designer dog bed that leans more toward the
exotic. For example, this would include the type of bed that has
a bit of an eastern flair.
You can review your options and see examples of this at Glamour
Dog (www.glamourdog.com),
with luxury dog beds that call to mind a Sultan’s tent or
a yurt on the Caucasian Steppes. These are round tent beds, often
decorated with jewels or fur, that have canopied roofs that rise
to a spire in the center. Although, if it comes with flaps that
hang down from the edge of the roof, it starts resembling a circus
tent.
Memory Foam Beds Are Orthopedic Beds
But a designer bed for your pooch isn’t automatically a bed that
screams "luxury" at you. There can be special designs
that concentrate on other things as well. Some beds have a much
more "down home" feel to them, made to resemble country
style, four-poster beds or big, puffy arm chairs.
Others go a more eccentric route, so you end up with your dog
sleeping in a car, a wicker basket or a gazebo. And don’t forget
that memory foam beds, which are more orthopedic dog beds than
anything else, are also considered designer beds because they
add something special to the normal design.
Going Beyond The Usual Standards
Remember that functionality is sometimes what a designer dog
bed is all about, rather than form. This means that you might
consider plain rectangle dog beds with sustainable hemp covers
and cushions made from recycled plastic bottles to be just as
much designer beds as four-poster beds with canopies.
The common denominator among all beds of special design is that
they go a little beyond the usual standards and create something
different, whether that involves visual effect or function.

Little Known Facts About Dog Beds....
If you have a dog then you are going to need a dog bed. Dog beds
come in a wide assortment of styles, colors and sizes so you really
have to have an idea of what you need and are willing to pay.
And the beds can differ greatly in prices.
Orthopedic beds used for dogs that have joint problems are probably
going to cost you more than a bed bought at Petco or Wal-Mart.
But whatever type of bed you wind up buying you need to have as
much information as possible.
