How to Clean a Woolrich Pet Bed
The Woolrich company, known for high-quality clothing and furniture that represents the outdoorsy lifestyle, also makes pet beds that come in an assortment of styles and fabrics, such as buffalo plaid, sherpa and herringbone patterns. The pet beds usually have a round or rectangular foam cushion with a removable cover, and are machine-washable. Maintain pet beds through a combination of minor weekly cleanings, spot cleanings and more thorough monthly cleanings. Use a mild detergent, and avoid fabric softener and dryer sheets, which can cause skin irritation for your pet. Does this Spark an idea?
