How do you make a dog bed washable and fresh?

A clean and fresh dog bed is essential for your dog's well-being and for the hygiene of your home. Dogs spend a lot of time on their beds or cushions, and it's inevitable that they accumulate dirt, hair, and odors. Regularly cleaning a sturdy dog ​​bed or an orthopedic dog bed helps maintain a healthy and comfortable environment. In this guide, we explain how to properly wash a dog bed – and how the DreamyDog washable dog bed makes it even easier.

Step 1: Read the label

Before washing, always check the label. Some pillows are fully machine washable, while others only have a removable cover that you can clean. This prevents you from accidentally damaging the filling.

Step 2: Remove loose hair and dirt

Vacuum or use a lint roller to remove as much loose hair and dirt as possible. This prevents clogs in your washing machine and ensures cleaner results.

Step 3: Wash the cover

Most quality dog ​​cushions, including the DreamyDog sturdy dog ​​basket , have a removable cover.

Preparation: Unzip the cover, remove the inner cushion and shake the cover well.
Washing Machine: Place the cover in the washing machine with a mild, pet-safe detergent.
Drying process: Let the cover air dry or use a low temperature in the dryer to keep the fabric beautiful.

Step 4: Wash the inner cushion

Not all cushion liners are machine washable. Always check the label. If they are, use a gentle cycle and rinse thoroughly to remove any soap residue. For hand washing, use warm water and a mild detergent, rinse well, and air dry completely.

Extra benefit: DreamyDog dog basket washable at 30 degrees

At DreamyDog , we understand that convenience and hygiene are paramount. That's why every DreamyDog dog bed is machine washable at 30 degrees Celsius. This applies to both the covers and the orthopedic inner cushions, which are protected by an extra layer. This way, your luxurious and sturdy dog ​​bed always stays fresh, even for dogs that shed a lot or play outside frequently. The fabrics retain their quality and appearance, even after multiple washes – ideal for owners who value convenience and design.

Step 5: Regular maintenance

Vacuum the pillow weekly and, if necessary, use a pet-safe odor remover. This will keep the bed fresh between washes.

Extra tips

• Use a fitted sheet: This catches dirt and hair and is quick to wash.
• Protect the pillow: A water-repellent cover will make the bed last longer.
• Replace it regularly: Even the best cushions wear out over time. At DreamyDog, you'll always find a new, orthopedic dog cushion that combines style and comfort.

Conclusion

Keeping a dog bed clean is essential for your dog's health and comfort. The DreamyDog washable dog bed makes this process simple and efficient. Choose convenience, hygiene, and a luxurious design – give your dog the fresh and comfortable resting place they deserve.
