Dog Bed Buying Guide -What to Look For

Dog Bed Buying Guide -What to Look For

Dog Bed Sizing Guide

Our crate bedding is specifically designed to fit the majority of dog crates made by Midwest, Precision, Four Paws and others. Our dog crate beds are available in the 6 most popular crate sizes.

Our Size Guide is as follows: (XS) 18", (S) 24", (M) 30", (L) 36", (XL) 42" & (XXL) 48". This measurement is the length of the crate, which is the longest side. There are no standard sizes for dog crates; the width and height of crates vary in every collection from every manufacturer. But our unique pattern accommodates the small variances in size, so you don't have to worry whether your Cratewear will fit.

To determine the correct Cratewear size for your dog crate bed, all you need to do is simply measure the length of the crate from front to back and refer to our size guide. It's that easy!

Please Note: The X-Small crates vary from 18-22" in length. Our X-Small Cratewear was made to fit the 18" crate, which is more proportionate. It will fit a 22" crate, but the cover and pad will be slightly short. We do not suggest sizing up to a Small 24" Cratewear set, which would be too big overall.

Setting Up Cratewear Bedding

Please keep in mind that there are no standard dog kennel or cage sizes. Our bedding has been designed to accommodate the majority of crates. For the best fit:

  • Place the bumper in the crate first. Start by attaching the Velcro around the back corners of the crate. Make sure you attach the Velcro above a horizontal bar. This will prevent it from sliding down. Don't worry if the bumper is short, the crate pad will fill in any extra space. Depending on the size of your crate, the bumper may or may not come all the way to the front edge.
  • Next, place the mattress/pad in the crate.
  • Now you're ready to put on the crate cover. All seams should be in the back of the crate not on the top. Crate covers provide privacy and security dogs appreciate.
