If you love to take your furry friend along with you on trips and adventures, then a dog carrier bag is a fabulous tool for so many reasons! From resting tired paws in cafes to travelling in taxis and trains, the possibilities are endless.
To ensure that your dog carrier bag remains in perfect shape and lasts for a long time, it is important to keep it clean and maintain it regularly with some simple steps below.
How to Keep Your Dog Carrier Bag in Perfect Condition
- We recommend brushing the inside of your dog carrier with a lint roller, pet hair remover or even a vacuum to remove any build up of dog hairs and keep it looking fresh.
- For our fabric carriers, spot cleaning is recommended for any specific areas that need attention. Use a dampened cloth with a gentle soap. Allow the carrier to air dry fully in a well-ventilated area before its next use.
- For a full over clean, our Teddy Maximus dog carriers with webbing straps are fully washable and the whole thing can be put in the washing machine. Keep to a delicate/gentle cycle at no more than 30 degrees celcius and a 400-600rpm spin. Reshape whilst damp and air dry.
- Our carriers with leather straps come with a removable washable cushion.This can be washed a delicate/gentle cycle at no more than 30 degrees celcius and a 400-600rpm spin. Reshape whilst damp and air dry.
- Our tote bag carriers come with a handy removable insert which can be hand washed for a quick refresh
- Many of our dog carriers come with a wipeable water resistant base.If you don't fancy putting the whole thing in the washing machine, your base can be wiped clean with a warm soapy cloth. Avoid any areas near leather straps to avoid colour staining.
- For a quick boost between washes, a pet bed spray can come in handy, providing a fresh scent and deodorising properties.
- Consider popping in a cosy fleece blanket into your carrier so that it can be easily removed and thrown into the wash when you want to refresh your carrier - that way you can still carry on using your dog bag for your daily adventures together!
- To keep your carrier in tip top shape, store upright and consider hanging up on a peg or on a shelf (if your dog will let you!).
