Cherry Dog (Hexagonal Bed)

Choosing a bed for your dog is mostly about whether they will actually use it, and a hexagonal cherry-red dog bed gives them a snug, raised-edge space which suits dogs that like to curl up or rest their head on the rim.

Why the Hexagonal Shape Works

Many dogs circle a few times before lying down, an old instinct that they still carry today, and a rounded, enclosed shape lets them settle into that curled position easily. The raised edges give your dog something to lean against, which makes the bed feel like a secure corner rather than a flat mat. 

Fabric and Build

The bed is made from a fabric that feels soft and breathable, and it is built such that it keeps its shape through everyday use. The upper layer is hair-resistant, which helps keep fur from clinging to the surface, while the water-repellent fabric guards against small spills and accidents. Like any fabric, it is not meant to be soaked, so wipe up spills promptly instead of leaving them to sit.

Easy to Clean

A bed that is hard to wash usually ends up dirty, so this one has a washable cover that can go in the machine for hassle-free cleaning. To keep the fabric looking its best, follow the care instructions printed on the bed:

• Do not bleach
• Do not wring

Regular washing keeps the bed clean and hygienic, which matters because it is the place where your dog spends a large part of the day.

Choosing the Right Size

The bed comes in 3 sizes, so you can match it to your dog's build, whether you have a small companion or a larger breed. As a general rule, measure your dog from nose to base of tail while they are stretched out, and choose the size that lets them lie down without hanging over the edge. 

Where to Place It

The bed works well indoors and in a shaded outdoor spot such as a covered balcony or veranda. Keep it out of harsh direct sun and heavy rain, since long exposure can fade the colour of any fabric. A quiet corner of the living room, or a spot near your own seating, helps your dog feel included in the family without being in the way.

Helping Your Dog Settle In

A new bed can feel unfamiliar at first, so place it where your dog already likes to rest and let them sniff it in their own time. A small treat or a gentle invitation helps, but never force a dog onto the bed.

Styling It at Home

The cherry colour is bold enough to stand out yet neutral enough to sit comfortably beside most sofas, rugs, and wooden furniture. If you enjoy coordinating your pet's things, you can pair the bed with our Red Barkball Woofers t-shirt for dogs for a matching look at home or in photos.
