Investing in handmade dog leashes and toys means you’re choosing quality and durability. To ensure these products last a long time, proper care and maintenance are essential. Here’s a guide on how to take care of your Bella Loma K9 handmade leashes and toys:
- Regular Cleaning
- Leashes: Clean biothane leashes with mild soap and water, leaving them to air dry. Fabric leashes can be thrown on in the washing machine and left out to air dry.
- Toys: Wash fabric toys in the washing machine on a gentle cycle, and hand wash rubber toys with soap and water. Leather or hide-on toys can be hand-cleaned with a damp rag but should not be put in the washer. Ensure all toys are thoroughly dried before use.
- Routine Inspections
- Regularly check your leashes and toys for signs of wear and tear. Look for frayed edges, loose stitching, or damaged parts that could pose a risk to your dog.
- Proper Storage
- Store leashes and toys in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight. Avoid leaving products in damp or humid conditions to prevent mold and mildew.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals
- When choosing a cleanser, avoid harsh chemicals or bleach that could damage the materials. Stick to mild, pet-safe cleaning solutions.
- Timely Repairs
- If you notice any minor damages, repair them promptly to prevent further deterioration. For significant damages, consider replacing the product to ensure your dog’s safety.
