Washable Dog Blankets

Has your dog has found a favourite snoozing spot on the lounge? If you’re not loving the dog smells, slobber and dog hair on your clothing, protect your furniture with a Furhaven dog blanket or throw.

Pet blanket that protects furniture from slobber
We love that a throw protects the couch from dog slobber and that it’s waterproof. And Barney loves his dog blanket because it’s soft and cosy.

The secret to the warmth and protection of this dog blanket lies in its 3 layers. The perfect dog blanket for the couch with a faux lambswool, or Sherpa, on one side and warm fleece on the other.

Sandwiched between these layers is a protective barrier that prevents fluids from leaking.

If your dog is an anxious traveller, use the blanket as a comforter. Take the blanket with you in the car or carrier and protect your upholstery at the same time. 

Puppies will do what they’re going to do. Accidents are bound to happen. So while you’re visiting friends with your puppy, and when the inevitable happens.. you’re covered. Just put this blanket into the washing machine. 

Wrapped up in super soft fabrics the ‘throw’ dog blanket has a decorative blanket-stitch finish around the edges. Your dog will love snuggling up into this blanket. Just ask our Barney!

The blanket is water-resistant due to the waterproof interior coating. Protect your furniture and save you work. It’s available in these sizes:

  • small 76.2 x 50.8 x 13 cm (length x width x height)
  • medium 101.6 x 76.2 x 1.3 cm
  • large 127 x 102 cm
  • extra large 152.4 x 127 cm

And in a range of colors.

How to Care for the Furhaven Throw

Disadvangages

So, I’ve talked about all the things we like, let’s now look at the downsides.

  1. The product is not chew-proof
  2. I’ve seen reviews by users who reported the waterproof interior coating made a crinkling noise.

I remember how much my son loved his favorite ‘blanky’ as a toddler. It was soft, cosy and comforting giving a sense of security … and it went everywhere with us… and was the first thing he looked for when he was going to sleep.

Just as we love the familiar feel of our favorite blanket, so does our dog. Familiarity reduces stress, so take it with you when you take your dog out in the car or visiting.

If a new puppy is settling into your home, let him get used to the blanket. It will help him settle and reduce his anxiety. His favorite blanket will help him get used to sleeping in a different space when he’s transitioning from a pup to a dog.

Comforting, soft and snug for your dog and protect your furniture from dog slobber, hair and spills. But the best thing for me, throw the blanket into the washing machine to freshen up, give it a fluff, and it’s ready to go.
