What Is the Best Washable Fabric for Dog Beds?
The American Kennel Club's guidance on dog bedding and hygiene treats washability as the core requirement, and that is the right lens. A fabric that cannot be laundered regularly becomes a dirt and odor reservoir no matter how good it feels on day one.
How Often Should You Wash a Dog Bed Cover?
Pro Tip
The Country Living microfiber dog towel measures 48 x 22 inches and is machine washable.
If you wash weekly and want the fastest turnaround, a removable zippered cover like the Hushky's is the practical choice. If your dog soaks the bed, a waterproof shell that can still be removed and laundered is the safer long-term bet.

The Fuzzy mat has absorbent fibers, the Immortal-Trek has a waterproof coating and an embroidered side handle, and the Hushky has a removable inner cushion and is machine washable.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are waterproof dog bed covers better for muddy paws?
The Dog Helios 'Immortal-Trek' has a waterproof coating designed to wick away liquid. The Pet Life 'Fuzzy' mat has super-absorbent material designed to hold excess water and fibers designed to capture dirt, grease, and grime.
Can you put a removable dog bed cover in the washing machine?
The Touchdog 'Hushky' outer cushion zips open, and the inner cushion is removable and machine washable. The product listing does not specify washing instructions for the outer cushion.
What is the best washable fabric for dog beds?
The Pet Life 'Fuzzy' mat has ultra-soft finger-like fibers designed to capture dirt, grease, and grime. The Touchdog 'Hushky' uses a durable nylon blend treated for water resistance.
How often should you wash a dog bed cover?
In muddy season, wash the cover weekly or every two weeks. In dry weather, every three to four weeks is enough for most dogs. Wash immediately after a visibly muddy or wet day, and spot-clean between washes. Dogs with allergies or skin issues need more frequent laundering, closer to weekly year-round. A removable dog bed cover makes this realistic, since you can strip and wash the cover without moving the whole bed.
Do washable dog bed covers fit over an existing bed?
