The 9 Best Christmas Dog Beds

The Frisco Holiberry Dog Bed is our pick for the best overall Christmas dog bed. It’s available in medium and large and has a festive print featuring a white background with an attractive holly pattern. It comes with a matching blanket and bone-shaped pillow. It’s rectangular shaped with soft bolsters on three sides and is covered in plush material. Most dogs will love to snuggle up in this soft dog bed.

The cons are that it is a bit expensive, but considering that it comes with an additional pillow and blanket, that might balance the price out. Also, the large might not be big enough for some breeds.

The best Christmas dog bed for the money is PetAmi’s Sherpa Dog Blanket. This is not technically a bed, but it’s just as cozy as one! This blanket can be folded into a thick pile for small dogs, or it can be spread out for a large dog. It isn’t a Christmas-specific design, but the red-and-black checkered pattern brings to mind warmth during the cold winter months. It’s also reversible with a soft white sherpa material, and it can be placed anywhere: the floor, a sofa, your dog’s crate, and on beds.

However, these blankets aren’t that thick unless you fold them up, and if your dog is a chewer, they might not withstand much rough play.

Frisco’s Nordic Fair Isle Dog Bed is a premium choice for a reason! This bolster bed looks just like a warm Fair Isle sweater stretched over a bolster bed. The red and white colors and the pattern might remind you of the background of an ugly Christmas sweater, though this bed is quite nice-looking. Frisco also has a matching bone-shaped pillow and blanket, which is super comfortable to curl up in.

But it is relatively expensive and only available in large, which might be too big for some breeds and not big enough for others.

The Hollypet Christmas House Dog Cave is just what it sounds like: a cute red-and-white Christmas house! It’s made with Arctic velvet and cotton, designed to keep your dog toasty. The floor has a removable cushion with a removable cover that can be machine washed. Additionally, the top or roof can be detached if your dog prefers a more open bed, and it has a little pet name card slot above the door.

But this is a bed that will only fit small or toy breeds, and it won’t be able to withstand any dogs that love to chew.

The ECO-WILL Pet Christmas Teepee is aptly named: It has four pine poles draped in cotton canvas with a red-and-white snowflake pattern. There are also three other teepees that you could choose from (though they are more expensive): black-and-white Dalmatian print, white, or night sky. The tent comes with a chalkboard nameplate, a string of LED lights, and a removable double-sided bottom cushion — one side is a silk-like material for summer, and the other is cotton for cold winter days.

But there are a few issues. It’s for small breeds only, and if your dog moves around too much inside, the whole thing might collapse.

The Disney Mickey Mouse Holiday Pet Bed is a comfortable bolster bed with a light green Sherpa inside and a darker green holiday print outside. The print includes Mickey Mouse heads in silhouettes, but these are small and fit in with the rest of the holiday-themed pattern. The bolsters are soft yet sturdy enough to support your dog’s weight, and it includes a matching bone-shaped pillow and blanket. It’s also available in medium and large.

However, you might find the bottom a bit thin, so it might work better on top of a carpet, which can also prevent it from sliding around. Also, the large won’t be big enough for some large breed dogs.

The Aubrie Home Accents Holiday Reindeer Dog Bed is quite festive with its red interior and reindeer print on the outside. The red interior is made with microfleece to keep your dog warm, and they will be cuddled by the soft, cushiony bolsters. It’s machine washable, and the interior is comfortable, with an easy step-in feature for senior dogs. Another Christmas pattern is also available: a green Christmas tree forest design.

The issues are with the bolsters. First, they make a crinkling sound, which some owners might find annoying, and second, they aren’t that sturdy, so the whole bed is a little light and floppy.

The Hollypet Printed Flannel Plush Dog Bed is affordable and has a red-and-black flannel print. It’s made with Arctic velvet, so it’s super soft and warm. It’s machine washable, though be sure to read the instructions. Otherwise, it’s easy to clean, and the stitching is reinforced to withstand chewing.

Unfortunately, it might not hold its shape after washing several times, and it’s quite small. The bottom of the bed is also made with flimsy material that might tear easily.

The Frisco Holiday Gingerbread House Dog Bed is a cute little dog cave that resembles a gingerbread house. It’s decorated with snowflakes, icing, and colorful gumdrops that are all part of the pattern, so there’s nothing for your dog to chew off. It has a removable, machine-washable cushion and a small window for your dog to peek through.

But many of these houses seem to arrive rather misshapen, and the sides aren’t that sturdy. Additionally, it’s a small dog bed.

Buyer’s Guide: Choosing the Best Christmas Bed for Your Dog

While purchasing a new bed for your dog might seem easy, there are a few considerations that you should make beyond finding something that you find appealing for its Christmas theme. Here, we cover a few points that might help you make a final decision.

Size

Many dog owners have bought a dog bed thinking that their dog will fit nicely in it, only to discover that it’s way too small. So, always check the measurements. Don’t rely on the manufacturer’s description of what weight of pet will fit in the bed. Determine the actual size of the bed by reading its dimensions.

Also, keep in mind that the dimensions provided are for the outside of the bed and not the actual area where your dog will be sleeping. Shave off a few inches when you look at the given measurements. Read reviews too, as other dog owners will usually mention how the size works for their dogs.

Washability

This is an important point considering how messy dogs can be. The bed will soon be covered in drool, hair, and that good doggy smell, so finding a bed that is easy to clean is essential. The best thing would be an entire bed that can be thrown into the washing machine. Otherwise, get one that has a machine-washable cover or at least can be safely spot cleaned.

Design

If your dog loves to curl up under blankets and burrow into pillows, a dog cave might be what you’re looking for. But if you have a Great Dane that would benefit from a cave bed, you might be out of luck, as these tend to only be available to small dogs. You might need to simply stick with a Christmas blanket.

If your dog loves to sprawl out while sleeping, stay away from covered beds, and go with either the blanket route or a bolster bed that’s geared for your dog’s size.

Chewing

Many dogs love to chew, and if you get a dog bed that isn’t made with thick and strong fabric, it will soon be in pieces. If you know that your dog will chew on the bed, get one made with material that is durable and has solid stitching. This might mean not purchasing a holiday-themed dog bed, but it’ll be worth it if you can find the right kind of bed that works best for your dog.

Conclusion

Our favorite Christmas-themed dog bed is Frisco’s Holiberry Bed for its festive print of holly and matching blanket and pillow. PetAmi’s Sherpa Dog Blanket might just be a blanket, but it can be used for breeds of any size and will make your dog warm and cozy for an affordable price.

If you’re looking for a high-quality dog bed with the festive Fair Isle pattern, you can’t go wrong with Frisco’s Nordic Fair Isle Dog Bed. It also comes with a matching blanket and a bone-shaped pillow.

We hope that these reviews have helped guide you through the wonderful world of Christmas dog beds and that you find one that your dog will absolutely adore sleeping in!
