Rydal High-Sided Nest Dog Bed for Dogs up to 50kg
For the dog who curls up tight and wants walls round them.
Edge to edge foam means our dog uses the whole bed. Very good.
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.
Rydal is a high-sided nest dog bed for dogs up to 50kg, with cushioned walls around the whole resting area, a fleece sleeping finish, soft fibre filling and a removable zipped cover. Five sizes, Small, Medium, Large, XL and XXL, in Green, Grey or Bronze.
You know where they are before you look. Pushed into the corner of the sofa, spine against the back cushion, nose tucked under a leg, taking up as little room as a dog can. The bed you bought them is on the floor beside the sofa, open and flat and empty. It is not that they do not like beds. It is that an open bed has nothing to press against, and this is a dog who wants something at their back.
It is easy to tell yourself they just prefer the sofa. Some dogs do. But the surface they spend most of the day and all of the night on is the one thing about their winter you can change this week. Rydal is built for a walls dog: cushioned sides that run all the way round the resting area, high enough to lean into, with soft fleece in the middle to burrow down into on a cold night. You noticed the corner. This is the bed that answers it.
Start where your dog lies. The sleeping finish is fleece, which is soft against a coat and warm to settle onto, and it is the part they feel first on a cold night. Under the fleece is soft polyester fibre filling. Fibre is yielding by design: it gives under them and settles round the shape of a curled dog rather than holding them up on a firm block. That is what makes Rydal a bed to burrow into rather than a platform to lie on.
Around the resting area run the walls. They are cushioned rather than rigid, and they go the whole way round rather than stopping at a gap or dropping to a low rim at the front. The height is the point. A wall that is high enough to lean into gives a curled dog something along their spine and under their chin whichever way they turn, which is exactly what the sofa corner was giving them. Over all of it is a zipped cover. The zip is there so the cover comes off for washing and goes back on afterwards, rather than the bed staying grubby because there is no way to clean it.
Best for: Dogs up to 50kg who curl up tight, sleep with their head on the edge, and go looking for walls when the temperature drops.
Not for: Dogs who stretch out flat. Walls all the way round get in the way of a sprawler, and they will lie next to it instead. Dogs who want a firm surface under them: the fibre filling is soft by design, and our memory foam beds are the better choice. Dogs who dig at or chew bedding: if that is your dog, message us first and we will tell you honestly which bed stands a chance.
The money went on the walls and the fleece. Cushioned sides that run the whole way round take more filling and more sewing than a flat pad with a strip of rim, and fleece where they lie is a finish a plain-covered bed does not have. Those are the two things a walls dog actually uses, and they are the two things a cheaper nest tends to cut back on: a rim too low to lean into, a lining that goes thin by spring. A £30 bed that is flat by spring is not the cheaper option. You just buy it twice.
Every night between now and spring that they spend wedged into the sofa is a night they are making do. Rydal starts at £79 for the Small and goes up to £139 for the XXL, and it is the simplest way to find out whether your dog is a walls dog before you spend more on anything else. If they do not settle into it, you have 100 nights to say so, and we collect it free from the UK mainland and refund you in full.

We have not published the outside measurements for Rydal on this page, and we would rather say so than guess. What we can tell you is how a nest is sized. The high walls take up a large part of the outside footprint, so a nest is not measured the way a flat mattress is. Measure your dog curled up, the way they sleep in the sofa corner, rather than stretched out on their side. A dog who measures 70cm lying on their side will curl to a good deal less than that, and it is the curled measurement that has to fit inside the walls. If you are between sizes, size up: a curled dog with room to spare settles, a curled dog pressed against both walls does not. Message us their breed and weight and we will tell you honestly which size fits.
Put Rydal where they already sleep, which for a walls dog usually means right beside the sofa corner they have claimed. Drop in a blanket that smells of home, or the jumper you wore yesterday. Then leave it alone. Do not lift them into it or hold them there, because a dog who is put into a bed learns that the bed is where they get put, not where they choose to go. Some dogs claim it the first night. Some circle it for a fortnight and then move in one evening as if it had always been theirs. A few never do, and the 100 nights are there for them.
Measure your dog curled up rather than stretched out, because the walls take a large part of the outside footprint. If you land between two sizes, take the bigger one. If you are not sure, message us their breed and weight and we will tell you honestly which size fits.
Unzip the cover, wash it following the sewn-in care label, and air-dry it fully before you put it back on. We have not published a wash temperature for the Rydal cover on this page, so go by the label.
Rydal is soft. The filling is polyester fibre, yielding rather than firm, because it is a bed to burrow into. We do not make a flattening guarantee on fibre, and we would rather tell you that than imply one. If your dog wants a firm surface under them, our memory foam beds are the better choice.
Give it the first week as described above. If they still have not taken to it, you have 100 nights from delivery to tell us. We arrange free UK mainland collection and refund you in full.

The 5-year foam guarantee covers the memory foam core of every PawLunova memory foam bed. If the core loses its shape under normal domestic use within 5 years, we replace it. Whether this bed is covered is shown in the "Included with this bed" list above.
Covers, zips, liners, waterproof layers, bolsters, fibre filling and non-slip bases are wearing parts and aren't included. Nor is damage from chewing, scratching, tearing or accidents, foam damaged by liquid (including urine) or by washing, softening that recovers when the bed is empty, or commercial use.
For the dog who curls up tight and wants walls round them. High cushioned walls, fleece to lie on.
Measure nose to base of tail lying down and add about 20cm. Between two sizes? Go up. Unsure? Send us their breed and weight.
Honest answers now beat a return later. Here's who this bed is for, and who it isn't.
Still not sure?
Message Abbas with their breed and weightThe Rydal is a Fibre bed: soft to sink into rather than supportive underneath, and it isn't under the foam guarantee. For a dog who gets up stiff, a foam bed will do more for them. For a dog who wants somewhere soft, this is it. The 100-night trial applies either way.
Comes off to wash, following the care label sewn into it.
Soft filling. Not under the foam guarantee; the 100-night trial still applies.
A bed that can't be washed is a bed you'll throw away. Here's how the Rydal stays a bed you'd let in the living room.
The cover comes off. Wash it following the care label sewn into it, and air-dry. Foam is never machine washed. Care guide.
The Rydal is not listed with a waterproof liner, so treat it as having none. If accidents are likely, keep a second cover ready and ask us before you order.
Ask us about a spare cover before you order. A second cover means the bed is never out of action on wash day.
If it arrives rolled or vacuum-packed, unroll it somewhere ventilated and give it a few hours to come back to full depth before they try it.
Nobody expects a trial on a dog bed. We think it's the only honest way to sell one, because a bed only proves itself at 2am.
Put it where they already sleep, with a blanket that smells of home on top.
Plenty of dogs claim a new bed the first evening. Some take a fortnight. Both are normal, and you've got 100.
Any time inside the 100 nights. We collect it free from the UK mainland and refund every penny.
It doesn't need to be unused. Send it back slept on, hair and all.
A few products aren't part of the trial. Where that's the case, the product page says so before you buy.
Every size on the site is in centimetres, and where a measurement is the outside rather than the sleeping area, the page says so.
A bed is for comfort, not a treatment. If your dog is in pain, your vet comes first and we'll never tell you otherwise.
The delivery dates above the button are worked out for an order placed today. Where a bed ships from a partner warehouse rather than our own stock, the page says so before you order.
I'm Abbas. I answer every message myself, usually the same day. If a bed isn't right, you tell me, and it comes back.
Measure nose to base of tail while they're lying down, then add about 20cm. Between two sizes? Go up. The size cards above list the sleeping area where we've measured it. Still unsure? Send us their breed and weight.
Most adult Labradors need the Large or the XL, and a sprawler needs the bigger of the two. Measure them lying stretched out, nose to base of tail, add about 20cm, and compare with the sleeping area on the size cards. If that lands between two sizes, go up: a bed that's slightly too big is never the problem, one that's too small always is.
The "What's inside" card above says exactly what's in this bed: the core type and, where we've measured it, the depth and the density. If it's memory foam over egg-crate foam, it says so. If it's fibre, it says so. We'd rather you knew now than in month three.
Then it comes back. Put it where they already sleep, with a blanket that smells of home on top. If after a fortnight it still isn't right, tell us any time inside the 100 nights and we collect it free from the UK mainland and refund every penny.
A dog who picks the kitchen floor over his bed has usually done the comparison: the floor is flatter and firmer than a bed that has bottomed out. Put the new one where he already sleeps, old blanket on top, and give him a fortnight. If he still won't, it comes back inside the 100 nights and you're refunded in full.
Where this bed has a waterproof inner liner, it's listed under "Why the bed" above, and the liner sits between cover and foam so an accident stops before the core. Where it doesn't, the cover comes off and washes and the care guide shows how to protect the foam. Either way, a second cover means one is always on the bed.
Where the cover comes off, it washes following the care label sewn into it. Coated covers wipe clean. Foam is never machine washed. See the care guide.
Yes. Inside the 100 nights, tell us and we arrange collection free from the UK mainland, slept on, hair and all, and refund every penny. You don't need to find a box that fits.
The dates for an order placed today are above the button. Own stock is dispatched in 1 to 2 working days and delivered 1 to 2 working days later. Free UK delivery.
