| Cleaning Suggestions? I am wondering how other YT members wash their custom dog clothes? Today Emma wore her Berry Dress with her Strawberry bow to the dog park and it got a little dirty. The dress was from Ashlee of Fairy Tails Fashion and I don't want to ruin it Please tell me how you wash the clothes while keeping them in great condition! Of course, here's some pictures

| Emma looks so pretty in her new dress. The dress is darling on her. I have not had to wash any of ours yet. But I too would like to know what the best way to clean them would be. I am thinking hand wash or extra gentle cycle. I see Jersey Boy hand washes and hangs to dry. Sounds like a good plan.

Well most of the time when they have their dresses on we are inside. If I let them outside, Mikki would for sure try to she what she can get into. Rosie is a prissy furbaby. She probably would come home as clean as she left.

| I would either hand wash it or put it on a very gentle cycle and then either air dry or put in the dryer on a gentle cycle with no heat. I have a hand wash cycle on my washing machine so I use that. It is very gentle and since there is no agitator it works great. I can wash anything in there and it comes out great. I then stick it in the dryer on no heat. I haven't washed any of the dresses with tulle yet though. I'm a bit nervous whether it would hold up or not.

| Just like baby clothes. Extra gentle wash setting,line dry and lightly press if needed. I also remove decorative bows from the dresses that I make and turn things wrongside out. |
