The Best Indestructible Dog Beds in 2022

Our first and favorite indestructible dog bed has to be this Kuranda Chewproof Dog Bed. Made from furniture-grade polyresin in a walnut finish, its elevated, orthopedic design will keep your furry friend off the ground, where it’s cooler, drier and more comfortable for them (after all, would you want to sleep on the floor?)

The bed itself is made from a super durable Cordura fabric, which is abrasion resistant and provides traction when your pup gets on and off, whilst the patented feature of concealing the fabric edges under the frame discourages your dog from chewing. Designed for indoor use, the Kuranda Dog Bed has been put to the test in dog kennels and shelters for many years, and comes with a one-year warranty, offering peace of mind to the owners of any particularly destructive pooches.

If you’re looking for a durable dog bed that provides the ultimate comfort for your precious pup, look no further than the Big Barker 7” Pillow Top Orthopedic Dog Bed. Specifically designed for large and extra large breeds, this luxury dog bed features three layers of foam, and a contoured foam pillow, all encased in a super-soft, 100% microfiber, zip-on cover.

Four inches of high-grade, therapeutic foam are ready and willing to take the weight of your big good boy, and can be particularly advantageous for dogs with arthritis or other joint or muscle issues. The manufacturer of this large dog bed offer an impressive 10-year guarantee that the foam will keep its shape over time – pretty reassuring if your loveable giant keeps flattening less durable dog beds into pancake form.

The Blueberry Pet Heavy Duty Pet Bed is a more typical ‘sofa’ style of dog bed, but with added durability. Your dog will have a hard time damaging the tough, scratch-resistant micro suede outer, and the cover comes with durable YKK zips, so it’s easy to remove and pop in the washing machine if Fido has an accident, or jumps in his bed straight after a muddy walk.

The filling of this cozy dog bed is made from a comfortable, eco-friendly recycled microfiber, that your pup will love lying on (and is well protected by the suede cover!) Available in two sizes, this tough dog bed is designed for small and medium-sized mutts. Bear in mind that, although this dog bed is hard-wearing and scratch-resistant, there are no claims that it is ‘chew-proof’ – so it may not be suitable for a particularly chew-happy pup.

Constructed from 2.5 inches of high-grade memory foam, the PetFusion Large Dog Bed provides a comfortable and supportive night’s sleep for your pampered pooch. A recycled polyfill outer bolster cushion also provides head and neck support, making this bed another good option for older dogs and those with joint issues.

Durability wise, this tough dog bed features a waterproof lining to protect the memory foam should your pup have any accidents, and a removable tear and water resistant outer cover, so you can easily throw it in the wash and have it looking as good as new. The cover is made from a soft ‘skin-contact-safe’ polyester cotton blend, that your dog will be too busy snuggling into to even think about trying to damage (that’s the theory, anyway!)

Back to another virtually indestructible dog bed, and it’s this K9 Ballistics Chew Resistant Dog Bed, with an impressive chew proof rating of 5 out of 5. Suitable for all sizes of dogs, this raised dog bed has a super-strong aluminum frame and re-enforced aluminum corners which hide the outer edges of the fabric bed, removing the temptation and opportunity for your dog to chew.

The area where your dog will lie is a durable ballistic material sling that is designed to withstand attack from your pup’s teeth or claws. The grid pattern stops small tears from spreading, ensuring that, even if they are able to make a dent, your pup will be thwarted in their mission to annihilate their new bed. This indestructible dog bed is available in five sizes, so there’s one for every mischievous pup.

Sticking with K9 Ballistics, the next entry on our favorites list is their Original Tough Dog Bed – a foam-filled, cushioned dog bed that’s meant to put similar, cheaper dog beds to shame. With a cover made from a dirt and odor resistant, waterproof ballistic fabric, this durable dog bed is built to last, and won’t simply ‘roll over’ at the first sign of trouble. If it does get slobbered on, you can simply remove the outer cover and pop it in the washing machine.

In addition to a durable cover, the Tuff Dog Bed also has a concealed zip and Velcro closure, reduced surface seams and a triple over-lock stitch on all the seams, to make it as difficult as possible for your pup to get his teeth into it. The manufacturer is so confident in their product, that they offer a four-month warranty, during which time, if your dog tears the bed’s outer cover, they will replace it, one time, for free. Yes, free!

The Big Barker Orthopedic 4” Dog Crate Pad is made up of two layers of foam – one for support and one for comfort – to give your pup the most comfortable experience possible when lying down, especially if they suffer from arthritis or joint problems. Designed to line dog crates, this cozy pad will mold to your dog’s shape and protect them from uncomfortable metal or plastic surfaces, ensuring they are much happier about spending time in the dreaded crate.

The removable cover of this durable dog crate pad is tear-resistant and 100% waterproof, so it’s easy to wipe clean and will withstand any anxious digging, nesting or crate-wetting if you have a puppy. However, it is important to note that this is NOT a chew proof dog bed, so dogs fighting a chewing addiction may need to seek an alternative.

The Original Pet Cot by K&H Pet Products is a durable, elevated dog bed that is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, and can be assembled and disassembled in minutes – so you can take it to the park, beach, or when your doggy goes on his holidays. The off-the-ground design and breathable mesh center allow air to circulate, keeping your pup cool in hot weather, and it can also be more comfortable for dogs with joint problems.

The sturdy frame and lack of soft fabric and foam filling make it much harder for your pup to damage this durable dog bed by scratching or digging. The mesh bed is moisture, mold and odor resistant, and can be easily wiped clean from the effects of muddy paws. Suitable for dogs of up to an impressive 150lb, this heavy-duty dog bed is a must-have for heavy-pawed hounds.

Feel like you might have seen this one somewhere before? Well, you’re not wrong – the Kuranda All Aluminum Chewproof Dog Bed is a variation of our topic pick, the Kuranda Dog Bed. This one has all the same great features as the original, including an abrasion resistant Cordura fabric bed and concealed fabric edges, but instead of polyresin, it has a patented, chew-proof, aircraft-grade aluminum frame.

Now, this design might be a bit overkill for just a slightly chew-curious pup, and it probably won’t fit as well into your home as the original (unless you futuristic, space-age interior design is your thing), but for aggressive chewers, they might finally have met their match in this unchewable dog bed. There’s also the fact that it can support a weight of up to 250lb, so it’s great if your dog is actually a baby elephant in disguise.

Another impressive anti-chew dog bed from K9 Ballistics is this Tough Crate Pad. Made from their own blend of Ripstop Ballistics fabric, this ultra-durable dog bed comes with a chew proof rating of 4 out of 5, which is said to be suitable for light to moderate chewers, and to be effective with 90% of chewing dogs (note that for that top 10% of chewers who are truly committed to their cause, K9 recommends their chew proof cot bed, number 5 on this list).a

The Ballistics cover is tough enough to withstand scratching and the densely woven fibers prevent tears from spreading. The fabric’s canvas-like texture repels dirt and liquids, and can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth, or machine-washed on a cold cycle if required. But this K9 Tuff Dog Bed is not only practical – the dense polyester filling makes it plump and comfy for your pup too, so Fido will love it as much as you!

For older dogs, mutts with joint problems, or just those canines who enjoy the finer things in life, this Premium Orthopedic Memory Foam Dog Bed by Dogbed4less will make them feel like the prince they are (at least, in your eyes). Made from a hypoallergenic, gel-infused memory foam, this tough dog bed offers your faithful hound all the support they need in later life.

Included with purchase are a waterproof liner to protect the memory foam from any accidents or spillages, and two external covers, in brown micro-suede and denim. These easy-to-remove covers are machine washable, and additional replacement covers can also be purchased separately, so you can always have your dog’s bed looking as good as new, regardless of what they throw at it (often mud, in our experience…)

There are several reasons why our last pick, the PetEdge Pipe Dreams Outdoor Elevated Pet Bed deserves a spot on your, and your dog’s, Christmas list. Your pup will love that the elevated design keeps them off the ground, allowing air to circulate and keeping them cool, dry and comfortable. You will love that it’s made from a durable PVC frame and vinyl-coated nylon, making it hard-wearing and easy to clean.

This tough dog bed comes in a stylish white and grey finish, but the fabric is removable, and additional options are available to purchase – perfect if you’re redecorating and don’t want to have to design your new color scheme around the dog bed!
