Why we picked it
Donut beds are built for curlers. The raised rim gives the dog something to lean its head and back against, and the shaggy plush is the texture dogs push their nose into. The maker describes it as calming and anti-anxiety; what we can say is that a dog that likes to nest has a place to do it. The 36-inch size fits a medium or large dog that curls, and the base is anti-slip so it stays put on hardwood.
We picked it for the look as much as the function. It was one of the first beds in the Jack Store catalog, and the fabric carries the OEKO-TEX Standard 100 label, per the listing.
The honest catch: shaggy plush collects hair and takes a while to dry after washing. A dog that stretches out flat will hang off the edge; measure your dog curled up, not standing.
Good for
- Dogs that curl up to sleep
- Anxious dogs that like a rim to press against
- Medium and large dogs, at the 36-inch size
- Hardwood floors, thanks to the anti-slip base
Skip it if
