I use wipes or a wet paper towel on the exterior. You can remove sheets and wash them. I have 2 sheets to alternate on laundry day!

You can wash it in the washing machine and put it in the dryer. The musical part detaches.

You can take off the cover and put a garbage bag around the inner bed (then put cover back on). Then you'll only have to wash the cover if it gets soiled,and the bed itself won't be ruined. This trick has worked for me and really extended the life of my dog's bed.

I just dry it on low, take it out right away and get it on the bed. Any wrinkles smooth out fairly quickly.

Do no put in a washer or submerge in water. A cloth or towel with a little water and soap is your best alternative. If it's soiled heavily, try to blot it dry. If small children are sleeping on it, it's advised as with any good bed, to put a protective layer down over.

You can unhook it and wash it. So, that said, you can probably take it to the laundromat.

There is a cover on the bed and inside if the zippered cover there is another zipper to take out the bolster part so you wash the cover without touching the bolster or bed.

Separate from regular wash - avoid fabric softener, etc... [I do wash with microfiber towels.]

I turn mines inside out and hand wash it in the tub with soap and water and let it hang dry. I'm sure you can probably do the washer machine as well, but that's the way I prefer to do it.

There is no washing instruction on it. I have been just cleaning with damp clothes. And the two sides do not touch each other. Maybe just little at the edge. But it doesn't bother me.

The clip part is under the padded side. I take a corner of the comforter, shake the stuffing away, and then take a corner of the duvet cover and push it inside the cover. Then I hold the inverted cover together with the corner of the comforter and clip them together. That way the clip is inside the cover.

I just scoop mine out with a broom pan and into the garbage. I have two of these cages and it usually takes me about 30 min. to replace bedding and wipe down the cage.

Remove the top and tubes, empty the old bedding into trash, rise and wash with warm soapy water(I use a shower head with a hose), let air dry, fill with new bedding and reassemble.

I just washed this bed for the first time. While the bolster insert comes out with a lining, the main insert is just stuffed loose, without any lining, in the base. So, before washing, I had to take out the stuffing handful by handful and place in a very large bucket, and then stuff the stuffing back into the base by the handfuls after washing. It was kind of a nasty project, that could be prevented if the stuff were in a liner, like every other dog bed I've had. I would be very hesitant to put the whole thing in a washer, because if it leaked out in the machine you'd have a terrible mess on your hands. I just washed this bed for the first time.

I have washed it in the washer with warm/cold water, detergent and oxi cleaner. I dried it in the dryer on high heat. I washed and dried it with a towel load. It came out fine. It was hard to unsnap but that's probably good so that it doesn't come off unless you want it to.

Yes, remove the grain-filled insert; wash the outer cover only. Machine-wash the cover in cold water on gentle cycle. Hang to dry.
