Size Guide - Classic Brushed Dachshund Beds
Follow these 3 simple steps on how to measure your dog for the recommended size bed:
Step 1: To measure your dog's correct length, use a fabric tape measure and start from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail. Once this is done, add up to an extra 15 cm to give them enough room to stretch freely.
Step 2: To get the width, measure shoulder to shoulder and add up to an extra 15 cm to give them enough room to stretch easily.
Step 3: Check the internal measurements on the size chart covering the usable space inside a bed to determine the appropriate size.
| External Measurements | Internal Measurements | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Size | Length | Width | Height | Length | Width |
| S | 51 cm | 49 cm | 23 cm | 38 cm | 37 cm |
| M | 61 cm | 54 cm | 24 cm | 51 cm | 45 cm |
| L | 76 cm | 70 cm | 25 cm | 61 cm | 56 cm |
Still unsure about the right size for your dog? Here are some size recommendations based on different breeds:
Small – Chihuahua, Cats, Toy Dogs, Miniature Dachshund
Medium – Jack Russell, Yorkies, Dachshund, Pug
Large – Spaniels, Beagle, Corgi, Cockapoo

The external measurements of the bed indicate the amount of space taken up by the whole bed.
Important Note - Our beds are hand-made; measurements may vary slightly. In addition, when unboxing any dog bed, we advise giving it a good shake by loosening it up a bit, so it resumes its original shape.
