I have 3 boston terriers. How well does this hold up to frequent washing?

I have not had to wash yet. After purchase I fluffed in dryer, but no washing...yet. I have two kids, but no pets. I'm sure I'll need to wash it soon.

I've only washed mine once since I have had it so I couldn't really say about frequent but it held up through the one washing. I even was able to fit it all in my washer at home though I had thought I was going to have to find a Laundromat to take it to.

I have purchased 2 spreads like this, and I'm back for a third. I had a German Shepherd, until she passed, and a Cavachon. I also babysit my brother's Rottweiler. They ALL slept on the bed, so these spreads get washed a lot. They always come out looking great. My dogs even scratch at them, as dogs tend to do, getting their "spot" just right. So far, no damage, no staining, nothing. I LOVE these spreads!

This type of quilting (vermicelli) washes well without the batting moving or bunching. Also since the pattern is stiched on rather than printed, the colors will hold up well.

I find that it washes pretty well if washed on gently and cool and dried and a very low heat for quite a while. If its not completely dry it will get mildewy. He stays soft and cuddly.

We've washed our dogs weekly on normal and high settings and dried them on normal setting for three years. Still holds up. Barking device died after a few months.

My Great Dane does not scratch but on occasion drags it to different areas. In all honesty I prefer even with frequent washings to replace every year to year and half. Mainly because hard to get rid of dog smell and the insides tend to break down.

I had mine through winter and it held up well. I also washed it a lot though

My dirty wet dogs are back there on it all the time. I've had mine since April and it is a nice microfiber type fabric. I need to take mine out and shake it but I believe that will be fine - when I brush it off it is fine. Certainly seems durable enough - I know when it arrived the material was a nice surprise as I had doubts after reading some of the reviews but it was money well spent. If you have dogs I think you'll be very pleased!

We have had one for about 3 1/2 years and I wash and dry it just about every week. So I would say, yes to your question!

If you follow the wash instructions the pet bed will last a long time. Wash in cold water using mild detergent and line dry only.

I have washed my twice ( I have dogs) and I have not had any problems with it balling up but I do dry with wool balls in my dryer. I think it looks fine not faded or anything.

It holds up pretty well after washing. You have to shake the internal fabric back out so it doesn't have a big puff in one end, but I recommend it. It's a very nice comforter.

I wash mine as often as needed and it holds up great all the spots come out.

It's holding up well. I have 2 big dogs that lay on it with me every evening and I have to wipe it down from them. Heavy use and it's been 2 years now....good price...I recommend still

Any kong toy I have had long enough to wash, I have been able to wash. I bought this for my smallest, but my next smallest got hold of it and it was all over so I never washed this one.

I've had mine for approximately three years. No problems. I have three big dogs and four cats so I am diligent about keeping the area around it clean so it can function properly. I think this is a great product and often recommend it to my friends.

I purchased 2 of these and have washed them once or twice every day for almost 3 months. They go into the dryer on a regular setting (high) and come out looking new. When I plan the next litter of pups I will buy 2 more even though these still look great. With 10 Lab pups they have taken a beating and still look almost new.

I don't wash after each use. If the dog actually uses it every day, I would say I would wash it every 3 days. But I have mine on the bed where she sleeps and she hardly ever goes on it - just accidents. I would go by smell because they dry between uses so it's not like they stay wet. Just to keep them clean, I wash it every few weeks even if she hasn't used it for anything other than to lay on it. I hope that this helps!
