This gentle giant can be quite intimidating for even the most experienced dog owner, but even though they can weigh in anywhere up to a staggering 250 LBS and stand thirty inches at the shoulder, the English Mastiff is really a big old softie!
A playful breed, if you choose to welcome a Mastiff into your family, you can rest easy knowing that they are usually exceptional with children.
Best Dog Beds for English Mastiffs
The English Mastiff is easily trainable, and if you’ve just welcomed your mastiff puppy home, it’s important that you start training early on, otherwise while it’s cute if your puppy sneaks onto the couch – it’s not so cute when he weighs 200 lbs.
There’s little I can say about this breed that isn’t a glowing recommendation, and if you’re lucky enough to own one for yourself, the least you can do for your big buddy is to buy him one of the best dog beds or sofas for English Mastiffs.
1. Big Barker

This large dog bed, unlike many others, is specifically designed for the bigger, and heavier breeds.
With a triple-layer foam inner, Big Barker is so confident that their foam will stand the test of time, that the foam within the bed comes with a ten-year warranty guaranteeing that the foam will retain at least 90% fluffiness for that time.
The cover isn’t included in the warranty, but it’s still pretty decent so long as you don’t have a destructive little scamp!
This microfiber cover is machine washable, and dries quickly but will age with washes and use.
Another great feature of this bed is the super-duper bolster cushion on one side of the bed, giving your dog the option to use it or not!

The easy zip-off cover is completely machine washable, and as an added benefit – the bed also has an inner waterproof cover that you can wipe clean!

The Deluxe Bolster Pet Bed from Midwest comes in four unique colors, with cinnamon, gray, pink, and powder blue in the faux fur, or as it’s sometimes known – plush – version.

This heavyweight bed is one of the best beds for English Mastiffs that we’ve found!
With a six-inch thick memory foam base, polyfill bolster cushions, and durable yet soft cover – your dog will love stretching out on this and catching a few Z’s.
With the memory foam inner, this bed helps to defend against joint problems, and can also relieve discomfort and pain for those poor pooches already suffering from joint issues.
The cover is incredibly easy to keep clean, but the only downside is that replacing the cushions back into the cover post-wash can be a bit tricky, and would be better to be done by two people.
Because of the packaging and shipping process, when your dog’s bed arrives; you will need to remove it from the packaging and leave it to re-inflate for some time – preferably 24-48hrs.
Pros
- Solid 6-inch memory foam base
- Easy clean with removable cover
- Water and tear-resistant cover
- Recycled polyfill bolster inner

Cons
- The cover is a tight fit and can be tricky to replace after washing
- Isn’t exactly the same as image shown
- Needs time to re-inflate after unpacking
- Some faulty items have arrived with the cover and bed stitched together
- Very heavy, not a good choice if you plan on moving it much
