What is a dog bed with a removable cover?
A dog bed with a removable cover is a type of dog bed that has a removable cover made out of a waterproof material like polyester or nylon. A removable cover is suitable for dogs who are messy or have a tendency to urinate inside the fabric of their dog beds. Removable covers also make it easy for you to wash your dog’s bed if it gets dirty.
The removable covers are made to fit the size of the dog bed below them and are generally zipped off to be washed in the washing machine. The covers are often made from waterproof, non-staining materials like polyester, but they can also be made from cotton as well.
There are many different types of removable covers available on the market and they can be used on different types of dog beds including memory foam mattress beds, orthopedic beds, pet cushions, and even portable travel beds.

Types of removable covers (plastic, fabric, waterproof)
If you’re looking for a bed that lets you take the cover off, there are three main types: plastic, fabric and waterproof. Plastic is the most popular choice because many owners find that it’s easy to keep clean (it can be tossed into the washing machine) and also makes pet hair easier to remove from the surface. It’s also generally easier to store than fabric or waterproof covers.
The most common type of removable cover is a fabric cover that you can take off and wash in the washing machine. This type of removable cover is ideal for people who want a simple way to clean their dog bed but don’t want to spend extra money on a waterproof cover.
A waterproof cover will stop water from seeping through, but it’s not breathable, so your dog may get too hot. A plastic cover is breathable but doesn’t let water through. Some dog beds have both a waterproof layer on top and a breathable layer underneath; others have removable covers made from one or the other material.
Removable covers come in different shapes as well as sizes and materials. The easiest to clean are rectangular because you can fit them in standard washers and dryers. Round pieces are more difficult to clean because they don’t fit into standard washing machines or dryers. If you choose an oversized bed with a removable cover, consider how difficult it will be to launder the cover.
Determining the size of your dog bed
Sizing your dog bed is a matter of personal taste, but you should also consider the size of your pet. A dog bed that is too small will not be comfortable for your dog to sleep in, and a dog that can’t comfortably sleep in his bed won’t use it. A dog bed that is too large could be used as a trampoline (which isn’t good for dogs) or your dog could simply have trouble fitting within the confines of the bed.
Size Recommendations
Compare those numbers against these:
- Extra Small: Less than 20″ long;
- Small: 20″-24″ long;
- Medium: 24″-30″ long;
- Large: 30″-34″ long;
- Extra Large: 34″-48″ long.
Where should you place your dog bed with removable covers?
The dog bed with removable covers can be placed in the living room, bedroom, study, or even kitchen. The places where you can place your dog bed with removable covers depend on your choice. However, there are a few things that you must keep in mind before purchasing a pet bed for your dog.
The dog bed with removable covers may be placed in the living room, but it is more likely to be placed in the bedroom.
Most people feel that the best place for their dog bed with removable covers is in the bedroom because that is where the dog usually goes to rest. If your dog spends a lot of time sleeping in the bedroom, it would be a good idea to get a bed for him. If your dog does not like to sleep in the room where you are, then do not force him. Your dog will be more comfortable if he has his own bed and you will also be able to keep your room clean.
Is the removable cover machine washable?
The materials that can be washed in the washing machine are cotton, denim, and polyester. These are soft durable and easy to clean. Some of them are reversible as well as washable which means that they can be used for a longer time period.
There are also some dog beds with removable covers which are not washable. These are made from faux fur, chenille, and wool along with other materials. They come in different colors, sizes, and shapes to fit the needs of your dog.
How easy is it to remove the cover for cleaning?
The best dog beds have easy-to-remove covers. Some are zippered, while others use Velcro tabs or snap buttons. The third type of cover is held on by plastic or metal clasps. These might be fastened with simple plastic tools that won’t damage the rest of the bed if your dog gets a hold of them.
Where to buy a dog bed with a removable cover
You can buy one at any major department store, discount store or Internet. The most common brands are Big Barker, PetFusion, and Bedsure.
Dog beds with removable covers range in price from $20 to $200. You should expect to pay more for one that has orthopedic support and other extras such as anti-skid bottoms or waterproof materials.
