How should I wash the dog's bed?
We have one of those big round dog beds, but it doesn't have a zipper or velcro with which to remove the cover for washing. I don't have any sewing supplies, or I'd sew one on. I'm not going to be able to get a sewing kit or anything for a while, so what would you guys suggest for home laundering?
Here is my best picture of the bed:

I'd take it to a laundromat with front loader washers. I'm sure it will wash just fine but probably wouldn't fit too well into a top-loader. Then go to your local thrift store and buy a few cheap washable blankets to put on top--and any blanket from a thrift store is likely to be something you can toss in a washer, even if it's wool. I see the cats appreciate the bed too.
