Care & Repairs
At Tinka & Co. London, we are dedicated to ensuring the longevity and quality of our luxury dog beds. Our skilled artisans are here to help maintain and repair your cherished dog bed, ensuring they remain as comfortable and stylish as the day you received them.
How to Care for your Dog Bed
Built to Last, Crafted with Care
While crafted with an artisan’s touch, our dog beds are designed to be sturdy and durable for everyday use. Thanks to their thoughtful construction, they can easily be cared for at home, ensuring they stay as beautiful and functional as the day they arrived.
Washing Instructions
For optimal care, wash your dog bed on a gentle 30-degree cycle. Avoid using bleach or strong detergents, opting instead for a non-bio detergent to protect your dog’s skin and the bed’s natural colour.
Drying Instructions
Your bed can be tumble dried on a low setting. Higher heat may affect the fabric’s quality, so please keep the setting low for best results.
