Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Soma an orthopedic dog bed?
It uses an advanced three-layers foam. A 3 cm wave-cut memory foam top contours to your dog's body and spreads weight across pressure points such as elbows, hips and spine. Beneath it, a 7 cm high density D30S support foam base of 30 kg/m³ foam with medium-high firmness stops your dog sinking through to the floor. And a plush top fabric layer for enhanced comfort and pressure relief
How do I know if my dog has a joint pain?
Signs include difficulty getting up, limping, avoiding jumping or stairs, reduced activity, frequent repositioning while resting, licking joints such as elbows or hips, and behavioral changes. For more info read our article about Joint Support in Dogs.
Which dogs benefit most from an orthopedic bed?
It is recommended for senior dogs, dogs with arthritis or joint problems, breeds prone to hip dysplasia or elbow problems, and dogs recovering from injuries or post-surgery. A supportive surface helps them lie down, rest and get up with less pressure on their joints. For dogs with a diagnosed condition, follow your vet's advice alongside the bed.
How long does an orthopedic dog bed last?
The high-density foam quality does not lose its elastic memory, ensuring the bed maintains its original shape and support over time. With proper care, the orthopedic dog bed becomes a durable product that can remain in excellent condition for 5 years or more.
Can the Soma orthopedic dog bed be washed?
Yes. The chenille outer cover unzips and the soft-touch topper comes off with Velcro, and both can be machine washed. The waterproof inner cover should only be wiped with a damp cloth so its coating is not damaged. The foam layers themselves are not washable.
What size dog is the Soma bed for?
The central cushion measures 75 × 55 × 10 cm and is designed for small to medium dogs, sizes XS to M, such as poodles, Maltese, Shih Tzus, Miniature Schnauzers, Pugs and Beagles. Measure your dog lying stretched out from nose to base of tail and compare it with the 75 cm length.
Is the Soma dog bed waterproof?
The foam is protected by an inner cover made of Oxford fabric with a polyurethane coating, which keeps accidents and spills away from the foam. The outer chenille cover and the topper are not waterproof, but both are removable and machine washable, so the bed is easy to keep clean for puppies and senior dogs.
