If you notice stains on the bedding, treat them with a stain remover prior to washing.
If the smell on your dog’s bedding is especially strong, add a full cup of vinegar to the final rinse cycle.
Avoid using dryer sheets, which may irritate your dog’s skin.
To remove very strong odor, add a 1/2 cup of vinegar.
Don’t bathe your dog too often as this disrupts the pH level of its skin. This is why pet wipes are a good alternative – they do not alter the pH levels of canine skin. Weekly bathing is only recommended for cases of severe dermatitis.
