Ortho Siena orthopedic dog bed

What makes the orthopedic Siena dog bed good for joints?

Ortho Siena combines an orthopedic, pressure-relieving mattress and supportive edges so that the back and hips receive even support in all sleeping positions. The mattress recovers quickly and does not "sag," allowing the dog to rest more comfortably, whether it is an active young dog or a calm senior.

How do I choose the size just for my dog?

Primarily compare your dog's sleeping position to the internal dimensions of the bed (S 45 × 29.5 × 8 cm, M 61 × 44 × 8 cm, L 83 × 66 × 8 cm) and leave ample room for stretching. For example, S often fits a toy poodle, kleinspitz, or Italian greyhound; M for a Shetland sheepdog, cocker spaniel, or a slender Spanish water dog; L for a Labrador retriever, golden retriever, Australian shepherd, or Dalmatian. Always measure your own dog.

Does the bed surface stay cool in summer and comfortably warm in winter?

Yes. The breathable, open-cell foam and airy structure regulate heat, so your dog does not get as hot in summer and the insulation feels pleasant in winter. This is especially beneficial for dogs that change positions often.

Is this suitable for aging or recovering dogs?

Yes. The orthopedic pressure relief and sturdy frame help reduce stiffness during rest, and the high edge works like a pillow under the head. If needed, you can add a hygiene cover with a 100% waterproof protective cover.

How easy is Ortho Siena to maintain?

The cover is removable and machine washable at 30 °C, the inner insert at 60 °C. The waterproof protective cover withstands washing at 60 °C and tumble drying. Regular vacuuming and airing keep the bed fresh in everyday use.

Does the fabric withstand digging and "nesting"?

The Siena surface upholstery fabric is very durable and scratch-resistant. It is designed specifically for heavy home use, so a dog's small nest-building does not cause harm—however, guide the most enthusiastic digger to a blanket or toy.

Is the bed material suitable for sensitive skin and allergy sufferers?

Yes. The materials are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified and LGA tested, and the bed's texture is pleasant to the skin. This makes Siena a safe choice also for sensitive dogs.

How does Ortho Siena differ from a "regular" bed?

Its multi-layer orthopedic mattress combines elasticity and support: the surface relieves pressure and the underlying support layer maintains shape. The result is a firm but adaptable sleeping surface that stays good for a long time.

Can the mattress be protected from urine damage or moisture?

Yes. The CoolPlus protective cover is 100% waterproof and bacteria-repellent, making it an excellent addition for recovering dogs, seniors, or after rainy walks. It also makes keeping the bed clean easier.

How do the colors work in interior design?

The melange texture of the Siena fabric is subdued and easy to combine: it hides everyday minor wear and hair better than a plain surface. Elba and Nebula bring different color worlds—choose a softer option for a lighter, natural-material-focused home or emphasize modern, darker surfaces with a more striking shade.

Who is size S best suited for?

Often for small 4–6 kg dogs that curl up to sleep, such as toy poodles, kleinspitz, or Italian greyhounds. If the dog stretches out on its side or sleeps long, choose M instead. Always measure your own dog.

Who is size M a good compromise for?

For many 8–18 kg dogs: Shetland sheepdog, cocker spaniel, Welsh springer, or a slender Spanish water dog. For long-bodied or very stretched-out sleeping dogs, consider size L.

Who is size L the best choice for?

For large breeds such as Labrador retriever, golden retriever, Dalmatian, slender Doberman, and Australian shepherd. If the dog is exceptionally long-legged or the bed is shared with a friend, allow plenty of extra space.

Is it possible to replace or upgrade parts later?

Yes. Covers and mattress are replaceable, so you can extend the lifespan and update support as needed—for example, for senior years or after an active hobby season.

Can this also be used for cats?

Yes—the edged, sheltered shape and firm support please many cats. Choose the size according to the cat's favorite sleeping position and leave a nest-like, safely firm feel.
