Tips:

• Use a mattress protector to prevent stains and odors from penetrating the bed.
• Wash the bed every few months, especially if your pet sheds heavily.
• Use a pet-safe disinfectant to clean the bed after each use.
• If the bed is made of a delicate fabric, such as silk or wool, test the cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
