Dogs are like us! They have their own preferences when it comes to sleep. Just like some people prefer to sleep in a dark, quiet room, some dogs prefer to sleep in a covered dog bed that gives them their own, secure space.
This is because dogs are den animals. In the wild, dogs would sleep in burrows or caves to protect themselves from predators and the elements. This instinct still exists in our four legged, best friends today and many dogs feel more comfortable and secure when they have a covered bed to sleep in.
Do you have a dog who loves to feel secure and hidden?
If so, a dog teepee might be the perfect sleeping spot for them! Teepees provide a sense of privacy and shelter, which can be especially important for dogs who are anxious or miss us when we’re not there. They can also help to block out noise and light, which can make for a more peaceful and relaxing sleep environment.
If you're thinking about getting a teepee for your dog, there are a few things to keep in mind:
- Size: The dog teepee should be large enough for your dog and the bed should be big enough for them to stretch out.
- Materials: Choose a teepee that is made from quality materials that will last. Look for solid poles for a structure that will last and a highly durable material. Your Dog will thank you if it’s built to last and be with them for a long time
- Portable: Look for a dog teepee that is easily transportable so it can be used inside or outside, home or away. If they're staying somewhere different over a weekend, their dog teepee bed will help them feel secure and quickly at home
- Waterproof: Ensure its multi-purpose and waterproof so your dog can enjoy it inside but also outside as a cool, shaded space in the sun but safe if it rains
