My partners black retriever LOVES to get wet and muddy (and smelly) and I HATE it. If I had it my way he would be washed every couple of days. When he bring the dog over for a few days with him when he comes to stay with me. I spend most of my time cleaning the house after the dog.
The dog bed hat he has is fleece material and forever stuck with bits of chew, bone and everything else and just basically stinks. I refuse to put that in my washing machine. So I wash fresh blankets and put them in the bed regularly but you can smell the actual bed. Can anyone recommend a good bed that can take the size of a retriever and be easily and regularly washed? I’ve looked online but they still appear to be the big plump fleece material versions and they just don’t fit in my machine.
I am slowly losing the will with the dirty paws on my light laminate too but then I am very house proud and my partner has very different standards to me.
