Accessories for Your PetCot

While a PetCot bed is a wonderful tool to have on its own, there are some wonderful accessories you can get that will improve the look and feel of your bed for your pet. Our pet beds are specially designed to ensure that you and your pet have the best experience possible with our beds. They are designed to accommodate your home styles and hygiene needs. While your pet will think that this bed is the most comfortable pet bed they've been on in years. Here are some of the great accessories that you'll find to pair with the best pet beds.

Dry As A Bone Incontinent Bed

If you have an older dog or a dog with urinary incontinence, this is the bed for you! The "Dry As A Bone" dog bed is a special PetCot created for dogs with urinary problems or who are recovering from surgery and are bed-ridden.

As always, our bed is easy to clean. The fabric is comfortable, breathable, dries quickly and odor free. Simply wash the fabric with soap and water or a safe disinfectant. The urine tray is easily removable to empty and clean.

Can You Teach An Old Dog New Tricks?

While you may have heard this old saying, you should be relieved to know that you can, in fact, train an older dog to obey your commands. While there are a few factors that impact how much your older dog can learn, the are capable of learning these new "tricks," even if they aren't capable of jumping through hoops anymore. Here are a few things you should keep in mind as you train your dog to obey commands.

Training History

There are studies that show that the more humans continue to exercise their brains, the more mentally alert they remain, and the same can be said of your "pup." If you are continually training them, teaching them, and encouraging them to learn, you will find that it is easier to train them later on.

Physical Conditions

Does your dog have any physical conditions that you should be aware of? Joint and muscle pain, hip dysplasia, obesity and heart problems can make training difficult sometimes. Especially if you are wanting to enroll them in a vigorous program.

Are There Any Mental Conditions?

"Doggie Alzheimer's" is a very real condition, and if your furry friend is experiencing this, it may make it more of a struggle to teach them new tricks, or even reinforce the old ones. You can speak to your vet if you suspect that your pet is suffering from this, there may be medications that can be administered.

Your Skill Level

It's always important to consider your skill level when thinking about training your older dog. Like with any pet, consistency is key. If you have any doubt that you'll be able to achieve that, you may want to enlist in the assistance of a professional who can train both you and your dog.

What Methods Have Been Used?

There have been studies that prove positive reinforcement is a much better way to train your pet, especially older dogs. If you want your dog to be an eager learner, you can stick with positive reinforcement to help encourage them to continue obeying.

Older Dog Training

There could be many reasons you're wanting to train your dog, maybe you adopted him from a shelter and he has some bad habits. You could have gotten him from a friend who could no longer care for him, or you may have never established good rules when they were younger, and now that they're older it's harder to manage them. You can use our PetCot beds to help establish a safe place for your pet to go, as well as use it to teach the "place" command. This command works wonders for dogs who tend to stay underfoot or greet guests with more energy than is generally welcome.

Best Pet Beds on the Market

PetCot pet beds are not only easy to use but easy to clean. With any older dog, having a comfortable bed that can be cleaned easily is a wonderful tool. Aside from our PetCot beds being easy to clean and use, we also have many attachments that make these beds even more amazing. The orthopedic dog bed insert enhances the benefits of the PetCot. It adds comfort and support for all pets, especially your older dogs. Visit our website today to learn how you can get a PetCot bed in your home!

Why Your Dog Needs a PetCot

Pet beds provide more than a place to rest their heads, they provide security. While many people think that their dogs can curl up on the floor, in many cases that isn't the most ideal option for your furry friend. Here are a few reasons that a PetCot bed will benefit your pups life.

A Place of Their Own

Sometimes your pet just wants a place that they can call their own, especially if you have more than one. A pet provides them that place where they can nap peacefully, re energize from a long day, or even go when they're scared. Our pet beds come in many sizes, so your dog will have the space they need to spread out and get comfortable.

Another thing to note, is that giving your dog a place to sleep can help keep him from sleeping in the areas that you don't want him to. If your bed, and the couch are off limits, he needs a place that he can call his own without laying claim to your spots. To make sure that he'll use it though, you have to make sure and get the right size.

Cleanliness

Just like humans, dogs can be rather messy. The dander, dog hair, sweat and drool can often cause their beds to be disgusting. A PetCot bed is easy to clean, so that you don't have to worry about what is living inside that plush bedding. The suspended bed also allows for plenty of air movement, so your pet is always getting plenty of air, and the bed can fully dry out when they are not using it. We have many accessories you can pair with your PetCot bed to make it even cleaner for your pet.

A dog bed can also help keep your home clean! By giving your pet a place to sleep and rest, not only will it keep them off of your couch and bed, but it can limit the amount of hair that gets on your furniture as well. It's much easier to take the cover off of a PetCot bed than it is to wash, vacuum, or roller your entire living room set. Purchase one of our easy to clean pet beds today and see how much faster it is to keep your area clean!

Health

As your dog gets older you may find that they begin to suffer with health problems. Anything from joint issues to hip pains can all be even more painful without the proper tools. A PetCot bed gives them a place to lay down and take the pressure off of their aching joints. While our beds are perfectly designed so that even your older dog won't have trouble getting off of it, we also sell accessories to make it even more comfortable for them. We offer an orthopedic dog bed insert that is made specifically for your PetCot, and your older dog in mind. The extra foam will ease aches and pains, making recovery easier.
