Orthopaedic Dog Beds

Orthopedic Dog Beds - Handmade in the UK

Orthopaedic Dog Beds from Berkeley are made just like the very best quality beds for humans using a mix of traditional mattress making techniques, deep natural chemical-free fillings and modern pocket spring technology. A safer, non-toxic and far superior alternative to memory foam dog beds.

The central pocket spring core provides a dynamic response to natural body movement and reacts intelligently to your dogs body contours to cushion vulnerable exposed joints such as hips and elbows.

Typically, there are around 220 individual springs in one of our mattresses each housed in a fabric pocket and all working independently of each other. This means that support is offered from the centre to the very edge of the mattress. 

This core also creates a unique thermo-regulating air dam around the springs to improve insulation and breathability. Movement on the bed pushes air through the deep layers of natural fibre to help keep it fresh and dry and avoid overheating.

On either side of the pocket spring core are 4 deep layers of cotton-rich felt. This is the perfect material for the filling of a dog bed. It is naturally soft and springy, the fibres provide a breathable insulation that is warm in winter yet cool in summer and it has superb moisture wicking qualities.

This main structure is then wrapped in lamb’s wool and compressed and tufted inside a tough zipped cotton drill inner bag. It will not  flatten, break down or clump-up like inferior beds.

We then add a tough waterproof fabric removable, washable and replaceable cover, that comes as standard, for enhanced protection.

Independently judged to be particularly effective for dogs suffering from arthritis, hip dysplasia, joint, ligament and spinal complaints and generally for all elderly dogs that may require extra support and comfort.

The multiple layer construction of our orthopedic dog beds make them substantially heavier than rival products -around 10 kg for our Large size - This has the added benefit of preventing the bed sliding around when your dog attempts to sit on it. 

These are true Orthopaedic Dog Beds that are supremely comfortable, minimise pressure points, and provide even weight distribution / correct spinal alignment to ensure that your dog has the best sleep ever.

Our Orthopaedic Dog Beds are fully approved by 'Canine Arthritis Management' - the leading UK support and advisory organisation dealing with arthritis in dogs.

A full range of optional fabric covers is also available to fit over the waterproof cover -

• Fleece Dog Bed Covers
• Luxury Dog Bed Covers in Super-Soft Crushed Velvet
• Luxury Dog Bed Covers in Tartan Fabric 

These provide additional warmth, traction and a cosy feel as well as being super-stylish and quick and easy to wash and dry.  

For dogs that like to have somewhere to rest their heads in an elevated position, please look also at our Universal Dog Bed Bolster available in a range of colours and fabrics to match our Orthopedic Dog Beds.

Please note - We do not, and never will, use any potentially harmful and toxic foam, memory foam or fire retardant chemicals in the manufacture of our Orthopaedic Dog Beds.
