FAQs
What dog bed is best for a small flat?
A bolster bed fits neatly in a corner. For crate training, a foldable crate doubles as a bed and folds flat when guests visit.
Should I get a dog crate for a flat?
Yes, if you are crate training. Choose a foldable crate that can be stored when not in use. Wire crates are lighter and more compact than plastic ones.
How often should I wash a dog bed?
Every 1–2 weeks. Choose a bed with a removable, machine-washable cover for easy cleaning.
