Okay, so the world of dog blankets is a little different than that of hotdogs (or their respective machines), but we promise, it’s just as fascinating. After all, pampering Fido isn’t only about endlessly throwing a slobbery tennis ball, but also providing a cozy sleeping area. So, without further ado, let’s jump into the soft, fuzzy world of dog blankets.

A strand of fur on your new cashmere throw may have made you consider: Is there any redemption, or will I lose all my precious throws to my pet? Actually, yes! Enter the specialized dog blankets. But before you go and pick a flash sale blanket, consider the following:
**Size:** Your dog isn’t going to appreciate a blanket if it’s too small. Make sure you’re choosing a blanket that fits your dog. Remember, this isn’t a one-size-fits-all situation.
**Material:** There are many soft materials, but if your doggo has a habit of chewing, avoid easily destroyed ones. Aztec prints look cool, but tears and runs, not so much!
**Temperature Adaptability:** Remember, you might feel cold, but your dog may not. Pick out a blanket that caters to your dog’s temperature sensitivity rather than your projection of winter chill.

Have a blanket picked already? Wait! Remember, a dog blanket needs as much care as your regular blankets. Here’s how you can extend their life:
**Machine-Washable:** Try to opt for a machine-washable blanket to save time. Trust us, you really don’t want to get into the intricacies of hand-washing a slobber-laden fur attractor.
**Regular Washing:** Speaking of washing, do it regularly—once every couple of weeks at least. This will prevent any bacteria buildup and keep the blanket fresher for longer.
**Repair the Tears:** If there are minor tears, sewing them up is better than disposing of the blanket. Saves the blanket, saves the earth (and your pocket), win-win.
