A soft doughnut dog bed can be a lovely place for dogs who like to curl up. However, not every round dog bed is right for every dog. A bed that’s too small limits the space to lie down, a fixed cover makes cleaning awkward, and a slippery base can cause the bed to move on laminate or tiles.
As a Joybuy Product Recommendation Officer, I review product information for practical details. So don’t just look at the fluffy appearance. Pay particular attention to the dimensions, care instructions, filling and stability.
With a doughnut-shaped bed, the raised rim takes up some of the diameter. So an 80 cm dog bed doesn’t provide 80 cm of flat sleeping space. Measure your dog both when they’re stretched out and when they’re curled up asleep. Allow a little extra room all around so they can turn comfortably.
For a medium-sized dog, a bed measuring 80 or 90 cm may be suitable, depending on their build and sleeping position. A large dog will often need a 120 cm dog bed.
For many models, only the cover or central cushion can be removed. According to the product information, the inner filling must not go in the washing machine. That’s fine if you know in advance, but it can be disappointing if you’re expecting a fully washable dog bed.
So check:
Rubber dots on the underside can help limit movement, but they’re less effective on a dusty, wet or uneven floor. Place your dog bed with an anti-slip base on a flat, dry surface. Check the seams, zips and fabric regularly too, especially if your dog likes to chew.
Look beyond breed descriptions. Your dog’s weight, length and sleeping style matter more than simply being described as ‘medium-sized’ or ‘large’.
Always check the current size guide on the product page. If you’re putting the bed in a crate, measure the inside of the crate too. A dog bed for a crate shouldn’t block the door and should leave enough room for your dog to stand and turn around.
The models listed use plush fabric and PP cotton filling. Plush feels soft and suits dogs who like to rest against a raised rim. The product information describes the PP filling as supportive, but comfort will vary depending on your dog and their build.
Look out for:
A plush dog bed isn’t automatically suitable for warm rooms or for dogs who bring a lot of mud indoors. Regular airing and washing are still needed.
The listed models have a removable section with a zip. According to the product information, the covers on the 80 and 90 cm versions can be washed carefully; the inner core isn’t suitable for machine washing. For the 120 cm models, it’s also recommended that you wash the cover separately and only air or spot-clean the filling.
Ideally, let the cover dry completely before putting it back on. Damp filling can develop an unpleasant smell. Always follow the care label on the product.
Why it suits this type of buyer: This model is designed for medium-sized dogs and has a diameter of 80 cm. It’s a practical introduction to a soft doughnut dog bed for home or for a suitably sized crate.
The product information lists a removable, washable cover, PP filling and rubber anti-slip dots. Check in advance whether 80 cm will give your dog enough room.

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 is often delivered vacuum-packed. Shake and fluff it well to help the filling recover its shape. Place it somewhere dry and flat, and give your dog time to get used to it. A familiar blanket or toy can help make the new resting place feel more recognisable.
Check the bed regularly for:
Stop using the bed if your dog can pull off pieces of fabric or filling. Keep a particularly close eye on dogs who like to chew during their first few uses.
According to product descriptions, a high, soft rim can create a more enclosed feeling. That doesn’t mean the bed treats anxiety or stress. Let your dog get used to it gradually, and make sure they also have a quiet spot away from busy areas.
Its lifespan depends on how it’s used and washed, as well as your dog’s claws and chewing habits. Wash the cover according to the care label, avoid excessive heat, and check the zips and seams. If the fabric is damaged or the filling is exposed, it’s safer to replace the bed rather than keep using it.
Yes, if the bed’s outside measurements fit inside the crate. Check the bed’s diameter and height in particular, make sure the door stays clear, and leave enough room for your dog to turn around and stand up.
