A round dog bed may seem like a simple choice at first. However, small differences in size, filling and care can make a big difference to everyday use. A bed that is too small, quickly loses its shape or is difficult to clean can quickly become frustrating.
Donut beds are popular with small and medium-sized dogs because the raised edge creates a snug sleeping spot. Be wary of marketing claims, though: terms such as “extra comfortable” mean little without clear product specifications. Instead, focus on the dimensions, materials, cleaning instructions and how stable the bed is on the floor.
The diameter of a donut dog bed is usually measured across the outside. The raised edge takes up some of the space, so a dog that likes to stretch out may have less usable room than you expect.
Measure your dog in their natural sleeping position. Allow some extra room to move, then check the internal dimensions or shape of the bed. A 70 cm dog bed will often suit small dogs and some medium-sized dogs, but breed alone isn’t a reliable guide.
On some models, only the central cushion can be removed. This is useful for regular washing, but the edge or outer cover may need to be cleaned with a damp cloth. Check whether the cover is fully machine washable or whether only the central cushion can go in the washing machine.
Always follow the care label. Don’t use bleach or harsh cleaners, as these can damage the fabric, zip or filling.
Rubber dots or an anti-slip base can help reduce movement, but results depend on the floor. The bed may behave differently on smooth laminate than on carpet. Make sure the base sits fully against a flat, dry surface.
Check the bed regularly for loose seams, damaged zips or escaping filling. Dogs that like to chew their beds need extra supervision.
A round dog bed with a diameter of 70 cm and a height of around 20 cm provides a soft, snug place to sleep. The raised edge is particularly suited to dogs that like to curl up or rest their head against an edge.
Keep these points in mind:
A soft dog bed with plush or fleece on top feels comfortable and is suitable for indoor use. These models use PP cotton as a soft filling. Product specifications may say that the filling is resilient or helps the bed retain its shape. Treat this as a material feature in the product description, not as a guarantee of a particular lifespan.
A plush dog bed needs regular care. Fluff it up and remove hair with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner on a suitable setting. With heavy use, the filling may feel different over time.
A dog bed with a removable cushion is handy if you want to wash it regularly. Check where the zip is positioned and make sure the cushion can dry completely after washing before you put it back.
A dog bed with an anti-slip base can provide extra stability when your dog gets in and out. This is particularly useful for active dogs or older dogs. It won’t prevent all movement: the floor and your dog’s weight also play a part.
Why it suits this buyer: Its round shape, plush fabric and PP cotton filling make it a straightforward choice for anyone looking for an indoor bed for a small or medium-sized dog, without complicated extra features.
The specifications mention a removable central cushion and a base with rubber dots. Be sure to check the washing instructions and the surface you’ll be placing it on before use.
70 cm diameter, approximately 20 cm high, plush material, removable central cushion and anti-slip rubber dots underneath.
Why it suits this buyer: The black version is a practical choice for interiors where a neutral colour is preferred and regular care is important.
According to the product information, the central cushion can be removed via the zip. That means you won’t necessarily need to wash the whole bed.
Plush fabric, PP cotton filling, removable and washable central cushion, anti-slip base and dimensions of 70 x 20 cm.
Why it suits this buyer: This model is a good fit for households where the bed gets plenty of use and needs freshening up regularly, such as homes with an active dog who spends a lot of time resting indoors.
The product description mentions a zip underneath that lets you remove the central cushion. After washing, make sure everything is completely dry before putting it back.

We’ve put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
A new bed may arrive vacuum-packed. Take it out of the packaging, fluff it up gently and loosen the filling. Give the material time to regain its shape before you assess the size.
Place the bed:
Wash the removable cushion according to the care label and let it dry completely. Check the bed regularly for signs of wear. If seams come loose, the zip is damaged or the filling is visible, replacing the bed is safer than continuing to use it.
Not necessarily. The outside measures 70 cm, but the raised edge reduces the usable sleeping space. Measure your dog while they’re lying down and compare this with the available space inside the bed. A dog that sleeps stretched out may need a larger model.
The central cushion on the models mentioned can be removed via a zip. Wash this part according to the care label. Depending on the instructions, the outer edge may be spot-cleaned or washed. Let all parts dry completely before using the bed again.
Its lifespan depends on your dog’s weight, how often the bed is used and washed, and whether your dog chews it. Don’t just check whether the bed is still soft: make sure the seams, zip and base are also intact. The product specifications don’t give a set lifespan, but regular care can help keep the bed in good condition.
