Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, tumble dry low. Weighted pockets are sewn closed so nothing shifts. Don't bleach or iron.

A hug your dog can lie under.
A calm, relaxed dog isn't luck. It's pressure.
The Hug Blanket is the first weighted blanket built for dogs.
Its gentle, even weight works the way a firm hand on the chest does.
It tells the nervous system it can relax.
Deep Pressure Therapy, in blanket form.
Why weight calms a dog down
When a scared dog leans into your leg or squeezes under the bed, it's giving itself pressure.
That instinct has a name: Deep Pressure Therapy.
Steady, even weight across the body shifts the nervous system from alert to at-rest.
It's the same reason weighted blankets help people sleep.
More than just a weighted blanket
A human weighted blanket is too heavy and too big for a dog.
The Hug Blanket was made from scratch for the way dogs rest.
231 little pockets hold the weight in place, so the gentle pressure spreads across your dog's whole body.
Before you order
Will my dog actually use it?
Most do, within two or three nights, because it gives them the pressure they already look for when they lean on you or burrow under a duvet. Lay it where they sleep and don't force it. If they're not using it after 60 nights, send it back for a full refund.
Is a weighted blanket safe for a dog?
Yes, for dogs over 11 lbs. At 2.9 kg it gives clear pressure but any dog that size can get out from under it on their own. Don't tuck it in or cover a dog that can't get up unaided.
Is 2.9 lbs heavy enough for a big dog?
Yes. Deep pressure works on evenness, not bulk. Because the weight sits in 231 small pockets, a 65 kg dog feels it across the whole body just as an 11 lbs dog does.
Isn't this just an expensive blanket?
A normal blanket gives warmth. This one gives pressure, and pressure is what calms a nervous system. It's the difference between a duvet and a hug.
Can I wash it?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, tumble dry low. The pockets are sewn shut, so nothing shifts in the wash.
What if it doesn't work for my dog?
You have 60 nights. If your dog isn't calmer, email us and we'll refund you in full, no questions.
