We all know dogs love their naps — but have you ever wondered just how much sleep they actually need, or why where they sleep is just as important as how long? Let’s take a closer look at your pup’s sleep habits and why a quality dog bed (like the ones we make here at Baylee Nasco!) plays such a big role in their health and happiness.
Dogs Sleep... A LOT
Depending on their age, dogs can sleep anywhere from 12 to 18 hours a day. Puppies? Even more. Seniors? Yep, them too. Whether it’s a mid-morning nap, an afternoon snooze in the sun, or a deep nighttime sleep, dogs are built to rest often. It’s how they recharge, support their joints, and recover from all that tail-wagging excitement.
Not Just Any Spot Will Do
Sure, your pup can fall asleep on the floor, the couch, or even your bed (if you let them), but that doesn’t mean it’s the best choice for their body. Dogs need a space that supports their joints, cushions their muscles, and helps regulate body temperature — just like we do.
That’s where a properly designed dog bed makes all the difference.
The Right Bed Supports Healthy Sleep
At Baylee Nasco, we’re not just stuffing fabric with fluff — we’re building beds with purpose.
Our beds are:
- Supportive – especially for older dogs or breeds prone to hip or joint issues.
- Comfortable – plush enough for deep sleep, firm enough for healthy alignment.
- Durable – made to last through all the digging, scratching, and nesting rituals.
- Machine washable – because accidents (and drool) happen.
When your dog has a designated spot to sleep, it also helps with routine. Dogs are creatures of habit, and having a comfy bed that’s theirs creates a sense of security and calm.
A Bed for Every Sleeper
Some dogs sprawl. Others curl into a ball. Some like to lean, nest, or burrow. That’s why we offer a variety of shapes and sizes — from bolster beds to loungers — all made with the same Baylee Nasco quality you (and your pup) can count on.
Not sure which one is right for your dog? Reach out to us — we’re happy to help match your dog’s sleep style with the perfect fit.
Sleep is more than just downtime for dogs — it’s a vital part of their overall health. Investing in a quality bed means giving your pup the gift of better rest, happier mornings, and a lifetime of tail wags.
Because at the end of the day, they deserve a bed that’s just as loyal as they are. 🐾
