Quick answer
For a Dazy Dog canvas bed cover, regular care means brushing off hair, spot cleaning stains, and machine washing on a gentle cycle. The heavy-duty weave is built to handle it.
Why canvas covers are different
Canvas is a tightly woven, heavy-duty fabric chosen for active dogs, heavy shedders, and daily wear. Unlike softer materials, it resists snags and holds up to repeated washing. The trade-off is that dried-on stains and stubborn hair can require a bit more effort than plush fabrics.
The Dazy Dog Canvas cover is designed to be removed and machine washed. Its weave lets fur sit on the surface rather than embedding deep into the fibers, making hair removal easier than with fleece or faux fur.
How to clean your canvas dog bed cover
- 1. Remove and shake off loose debris: Take the cover off your Dazy Dog bed. Take it outside and give it a good shake to dislodge loose dirt, crumbs, and hair. A quick shake prevents those particles from turning into mud in the wash. Skipping this step can leave grit in the machine and make stains worse.
- 2. Brush off dog hair: Use a rubber grooming glove or a lint roller to gather surface hair. Because the canvas weave is dense, fur tends to sit on top and brush away easily. Run the tool in one direction for best results. A rubber brush is more effective than a standard lint roller on this fabric.
- 3. Pre-treat stains: Spot-clean any visible stains—mud, drool, or food—with a small amount of mild laundry detergent and a soft brush or cloth. Gently work the soap into the stain and let it sit for 10 minutes. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals that can weaken the fibers. Test any stain remover on an inside seam first to check for colorfastness.
- 4. Machine wash on a gentle cycle: Place the cover in the washing machine. Use cold or warm water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Hot water can cause shrinkage, so stick to cool or warm. Do not overload the machine—the cover needs room to move. Washing with like-colored towels can help balance the load and reduce wear.
- 5. Air dry or tumble dry low: The safest method is to air dry the cover flat or on a clothesline. If you use a dryer, select the lowest heat setting and remove the cover while it is still slightly damp to avoid over-drying. High heat can damage the weave over time. Never use fabric softener; it coats the fibers and reduces the fabric's natural ability to repel hair.
