Doughnuts are a comfort food for humans and a comfortable night’s sleep for dogs. Experts have told us time and again that smaller breeds, in particular, prefer to curl up in concave beds due to their calming effect, and this pastry-shaped one from Best Friends is our Best in Class pick. At 40 percent off today, it’s an excellent purchase for anyone with a restless furry friend.
With a plush machine-washable cover, the bed is “great for warm snuggling and cuddling and provides just enough support,” says Jessica Gore, a certified professional animal behaviorist in Los Angeles. Carolyn Chen, founder of the Dandylion line of dog-care products, says that her 11-year-old cockapoo, Mocha, is “more relaxed in this bed than in any other bed we’ve had before.” Strategist senior writer Liza Corsillo became the fourth member of our staff to buy this bed after hearing about its cushy orthopedic support and bolster edges designed for pups who like a place to rest their chin. She says that her dog, Uli, refuses to leave it for hours on end, and will even drag it from room to room.
The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels. We update links when possible, but note that deals can expire and all prices are subject to change.
