Our Dachshund has a history of spinal issues, so stepping over raised edges was a risk. The Ambleside edge-to-edge bed is completely flat. She walks straight on and the memory foam supports her long spine evenly without pressure points.
Three sides to lean on. Nothing to climb on a cold night.
Martindale is a memory foam bolster dog bed in Large (96 × 71 × 16.5cm) and XL (104 × 68.5 × 16.5cm), with memory foam over an egg-crate layer, bolsters on three sides, an open front, a fleece sleeping surface, linen-effect sides and a non-slip base.
Winter nights are long, and the bed is where they spend most of them. Watch how your dog gets into their current one. If there is a pause before they step in, or they stand on the edge and squash it flat, the shape is wrong. Martindale leaves the front open so they walk straight on, keeps three bolstered sides high enough to lean into, and puts fleece and two layers of foam underneath them for the hours in between.
What they get
-
Memory foam over egg-crate foam: One layer to contour, one to support.
-
Three bolstered sides: An edge for a chin, a back or a hip, and an open front to walk in.
-
Fleece on the inside, linen-effect on the outside: Soft where they lie, presentable where you see it.
-
A non-slip base: It stays put on wood, laminate and tile.
Why it is worth the money
Two foam layers is the specification most brands skip at this price, because you cannot see it in a photograph. It is also the only part of a dog bed that decides whether it is still good in year three. The foam carries a 5-year no-flatten guarantee. Over those five years the Large works out at about 9p a night and the XL at about 10p. And you have 100 nights to decide. If they do not take to it, we collect it free from the UK mainland and refund you in full.
Size and fit
Two sizes: Large, 96 × 71 × 16.5cm, and XL, 104 × 68.5 × 16.5cm, outside measurements. The bolsters take up part of that. Measure your dog lying on their side, nose to base of tail, and add 15 to 20cm. Message us their breed and weight and we will tell you honestly whether it fits.
Everyday care
Follow the sewn-in care label on the cover. Air-dry fully before refitting. Never wash or soak the foam.
If your dog is in pain, recovering or finding it hard to move, speak to your vet about the right resting surface. A bed is for comfort. It is not a treatment.
100 nights to decide. 5 years on the foam.
100 nights is longer than a whole winter. Plenty of time to know.
