Having trouble on deciding which dog bed, crate or kennel is best? Our pet experts are here to answer your most frequently asked questions on which dog bed is best for your pup.

Which dog beds are best? 
The best dog bed for your pet depends upon the size of your dog. For large breeds of dogs, a bigger dog bed or mattress pad will be required such as this large dog mattress pad from Scruffs, whereas for smaller dogs, any size bed will do, get your small pup a large bed if you want them to have more room to grow into, or if they prefer to feel enclosed and cosy, consider investing in a small box bed. 

How long can a dog be in a crate?
