The Importance of a Chihuahua Bed
The fact is that ALL Chihuahuas need a soft, comfortable and safe bedding area to rest and relax. If you’ve ever owned a Chihuahua before, you probably know how much these little guys enjoy burrowing. You may find them hidden in a pile of dirty clothes, blankets or on bed sheets that were tossed on the floor. This may surprise some owners at first, but burrowing is a common practice in the Chihuahua breed.
While it may not seem like a serious issue, allowing your Chihuahua to burrow in unorthodox places such as these is a disaster waiting to happen. If you or someone else in your house accidentally steps on a pile of clothes where your Chihuahua is laying, it could easily cause serious injury. You have to remember that Chihuahuas are the smallest dog breed in the world, which also means they have weaker and more fragile bones than larger dogs. Instead of rolling the dice with this risk, you should give your Chihuahua their own bed to sleep and rest in. This will drastically reduce the chance of someone in your house accidentally stepping, sitting or laying on your Chihuahua simply because they will have their own dedicated area to rest.
Empty Chihuahua Bed
Here are just a few of the many reasons why your Chihuahua should have their own bed:
- Gives them a safe and comfortable area to rest.
- Creates a “personal” space for them that no one else can use.
- Softer and more supporting than laying on hardwood or laminate flooring.
- Chihuahuas feel more secure when they are resting on a bed made especially for them.
- A lesser-known advantage to owning a Chihuahua bed is that it adds another decorative element to your home.
- Chihuahua love taking raw hides and other treats to their bed where they can sit back, relax and chew on them.
- Many Chihuahuas take mouthfuls of food to their bed where they can enjoy it in peace.
Choosing The Right Chihuahua Bed
Choosing a Chihuahua bed isn’t a decision that should be made spontaneously without considering all of the necessary elements. A good bed can literally last 5-10 years when it’s taken care of properly. On the other hand, a cheap low-quality bed may tear apart the first time you try to wash it. Unless you want to buy a new bed every year, you should take the time to carefully choose the one that’s right for your Chihuahua. Let’s take a closer look at some of the things you should consider when shopping for a new Chihuahua bed…
Small Pink Chihuahua Bed
One of the golden rules when it comes to buying a Chihuahua bed is to choose a size that’s relative to your canine. Being that most Chihuahuas are under 6 pounds (there are exceptions with obese Chihuahuas), this means any bed you purchase for them needs to be small and compact. If you make the mistake of purchasing a bed for large dog breeds, your Chihuahua may not develop that attachment to it like they would a small bed. Going back to the burrowing nature of the Chihuahua, they naturally want an area that’s somewhat confined and relative to their small size, as this creates a safe and comforting feeling.
In addition to the size, you should also take into account what material it’s made of. After all, your Chihuahua is going to be spending quite a bit of time resting, relaxing and sleeping their days away, so you’ll want to provide them with a comfortable environment. Most of the high-quality beds available on the market are made with comfort in mind, but some of the cheaper mass-produced models are constructed with rough material that’s downright uncomfortable for a small Chihuahua to lay on. Ideally, the bed should have a soft and fluffy filler material, such as cotton, with an equally soft outer layer. Fur-lining is an added bonus that really adds to the overall comfort and luxurious feeling.
Lastly, you should think about how the bed is going to flow with your current home decor. You obviously wouldn’t want to place a bright pink Chihuahua bed in a living room that’s styled all in black and other dark colors. Going back to the basics of interior design 101, try to use colors that are either similar or contrast to create an attractive combination. If you’re having trouble choosing a color or style of bed, take a minute to walk through your living room and identify the color palettes that are being used. As long as you stick with the colors already used, you shouldn’t have a problem with your new Chihuahua bed matching the rest of your home’s decor.
