Dog bed come in several different shapes; round nests, donut or cuddler beds, round fluffy balls or pillows, square flat mattresses and sofa shaped furniture. Again, to select the right shape for your dog, pay attention to how he sleeps. If your dog curls up when sleeping, then a nest or ball is the right choice for him. Nests provide excellent cold-weather insulation as well since your dog can snuggle down inside of them. However most nesting beds are just fabric and fill and are not intended for outdoor use.
If your pet stretches out when sleeping, then a more conventional dog bed mattress should be your choice. Mattress beds let your dog toss and turn, curl and stretch, and find whatever position suits him best.
Dogs that enjoy both stretching out and curling up usually do well with furniture-like dog beds. The arms and back of these small sofas are great for snuggling, but the long length make them great for stretching out. These beds are often more expensive because they many are made with wood frames like real sofas and couches.
There are also platform style dog beds, many of which can be used out doors. These beds are often made from wood or plastic and provide an elevated sleeping area. These are often ideal for hot climates as some allow for air circulation
