Bedsure Orthopedic Dog Bed Medium - Washable Waterproof with Removable Cover, Nonskid Bottom, Grey, 28" Review (2026)

Size and fit for crates

This bed measures about 28 inches long by 23 inches wide, sized for medium dogs or smaller apartment crates rather than large breeds that need to stretch out fully. That footprint makes it a practical fit for households using a bed inside a wire or plastic crate, since it needs to clear the crate's interior dimensions rather than overhang the edges, as well as for placing in a compact bedroom corner where a larger orthopedic bed would not fit. Owners should measure both their dog's stretched-out length and any crate's interior space before buying, since a bed sized correctly for the dog can still be too large for a snugger crate.

Foam support and construction

Like Bedsure's larger orthopedic beds, this medium size uses high-density egg-crate foam designed to distribute weight and reduce pressure points, an approach aimed at senior dogs or dogs with joint sensitivity as much as younger pets that simply want a more supportive surface than a flat cushion. The bed follows the same 4-sided bolster design as the large version, with raised, cushioned edges around the perimeter rather than a flat mat, giving a medium dog somewhere to rest its head or lean against while sleeping. The bolster construction and foam density are consistent across Bedsure's size range, so the medium size is a scaled-down version of the same build rather than a simplified one.

Waterproof lining and washable cover

The foam core sits inside a laminated waterproof liner, protecting it from spills, accidents, or general dampness, which matters for puppies still being house-trained or senior dogs with occasional accidents. Over that liner is a separate, removable cover that unzips for machine washing, letting the visible fabric be cleaned regularly without needing to wash the foam or liner directly. Some owners find the zipper a little fiddly to realign and close after washing, since fitting a laundered cover back over foam padding takes more care than covers on simpler, non-orthopedic beds. Bedsure advises washing the cover on a gentle cycle with cold water and tumble drying on low heat.

Non-skid bottom and setup

A non-skid layer on the bottom is meant to keep the bed from sliding on hardwood, tile, or laminate floors, which is common flooring in apartments and helps keep the bed in place inside a crate or against a wall rather than shifting each time a dog climbs on or off. New beds typically need time to fully expand and regain their shape after being compressed for shipping, with Bedsure recommending 24 to 72 hours before first use, so it is worth unpacking the bed a day or two before a dog needs it rather than expecting full loft immediately out of the box.

Who should buy it

This medium bed fits apartment households with a medium-sized dog, or anyone who needs an orthopedic bed sized to fit inside a standard crate rather than sitting loose on the floor. Its bolster sides, waterproof lining, and washable cover carry over from Bedsure's larger models, so buyers get the same support and cleaning approach in a smaller footprint. It is not suited to large or giant breeds that need more stretch-out room, and owners should plan a little extra time refitting the zippered cover after each wash. For puppies or senior dogs prone to occasional accidents, the waterproof liner is a practical addition.
