yes. i always wash mine after my main wash and i also clean the wash out after it seems to me you dont want hairs over your own stuff but .you would put in local laundrette,to go all over other peoples clothes so yes UABU !!

wash them once a week so they never get that bad....

the hairs never go over my mum's stuff after she does the two dogs' duvets, so I think you are worrying for nothing

I can't believe you even asked this - YES!!

Ooohhhh no the hair hangs around in the washing machine and does stick to other stuff even when you run an empty wash with a cleaner in the machine - isn't that what launderettes and laundry services are for so you don't have to use your own machine to wash vile stuff?

YABVU.

I always put my washing machine on a hot empty wash when I've washed the dog's stuff. Otherwise you get hairs all over everything in the next wash. Bleurgh.

YABU.

You need to trade in your dog for a shorthaired, unsmelly low-shed model like a dachshund.

it smaks double standerds to me u dont want it on your stuff but its ok for other ppl to have your dog hair is it then !! like i said i dont have any hair stuck om my stuff even after i do the pets bedding

I think you should take all your dirty laundry to the laundry and keep your new machine clean! Def.

sd i do that too and no dog hairs stick on my stuff

Oooh-I have a no shed-there are several breeds! Or, just shave the dog.

It's a horribly antisocial and selfish thing to consider doing.

If they are so bad you don't want them in your machine, chuck them, buy new (ie buy yourself new towels and donate your old ones to dog) and then wash them before they get disgusting.[stern look]

Gross! Why do you let your dog bed get so bad? That's rank. Pitch it out and go and watch a few episodes of Kim and Aggie to get some tips on how to better keep house.

You can buy plastic bags that melt in the washing machine. They are used in care homes for incontinant people so faeces and urine do not wreck their machines.

You can probably buy them from shops like Able world etc.

YABU to put your dogs duvet in a launderette and not your own washing machine, but I understand why you would not want your new machine to be messed.

I hate to be dense but I don't understand how the melting bags help keep the washer clean?

No, YANBU - launderette machines have industrial strength filters that deal with stuff like this. Your domestic machine doesn't. I'd do exactly the same.
