Dog Bed Laundry Hack: Save Your Sanity

Ever look at your dog's bed and wonder if it's secretly a biohazard? Same. Turns out, you should wash it as often as your own sheets—yep, every two weeks. But wrestling a giant, hairy cushion into the washer? Hard pass. Here’s the move: just throw a pillowcase or fitted sheet over the bed. When it starts smelling like Eau de Wet Dog, peel it off and toss it in the wash. No more fighting with zippers or stuffing foam back in. Pro tip: keep a couple of backup covers so your dog isn’t giving you the sad eyes while you do laundry. If your pup is a mud magnet or still in potty-training bootcamp, layer a trash bag under the sheet to block the gross stuff. Cotton or microfiber covers work best—they survive the wash and don’t snag on claws. For stubborn smells, add white vinegar to the wash. You’re welcome. Your nose (and your dog) will thank you. #PetCare #DogLife #CleaningHacks #Pets
