Sorry for my absence, but I need advice! Sorry I haven't been on in a while. Both of my grandparents passed away of a heart attack three days apart. My grandma was with me on the way to my grandpas funeral and died in my car, so I've had a hard time with it. Priscilla is in heat, and I haven't noticed it. I haven't been making up my bed because I've been working a lot and just haven't had time in the morning. Well today I was making it up and I noticed that there was bloody spots on my expensive down comforter!!! How can I get the stains out. Before anyone says the best way is to get her spayed, I know. I've been putting it off for about a year, because she is so small and I'm worried about it. I don't plan on breeding her just so everyone knows. I'm just worried My beautiful nanny-http://http://www.obitsforlife.com/o...an-Jeannie.php My handsome papaw-http://http://www.obitsforlife.com/o...tman-James.php |
I am sorry for your losses. That was a double blow that no one should have to shoulder! Blood spots usually come out in the wash. Tatiana came in heat and got spots on our sheets. I just washed them in warm water and no more stains. They were pretty light. |
My comforter is white. I put some vinegar on the sports and washed it in warm water. I'm waiting for it to get done so I can see if it came out |
We used to use hydrogen peroxide on our scrubs/uniforms in the hospital to remove blood spatters.....works super! I am so sorry about your grandparents....it wasnt bad enough loosing your grandpa, then to loose your grandma under that circumstance.....really heartbreaking. I am so sorry for you and what you have been thru.....for your grandparents, they are thrilled at being together again...it was obviously tooooo much for your grandma bo face the option of life without grandpa. How long had they been married? A lot of these loving couples just can not go on after they loose their partner...life is reduced to just waiting day in and day out, to be with their partner again....Certainly does not make it any easier for us left behind, and I pray for strength and support for you and the rest of the family...... |
I have heard from a nurse that peroxide works for blood stains or most any stains even on carpets! |
Do not put it in the dryer until you can see the the stains are totally gone. The heat of the dryer will set them in forever... |
They were married for 54 years :) |
1 Attachment(s) My grandma loved when it snows and me and Priscilla took a walk in the snow yesterday :) |
Priscilla is precious! She does look tiny. How old is she? I bet going for a walk in the snow was a comfort and a way to be close to your grandma! ((HUGS)) |
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'd say your grandpa missed your grandma and came to escort her home with him. Peroxide and white vinegar usually work for blood stains. |
She will be turning 3 on June 19th. :) |

I'm sorry about your grandparents. Blood usually comes out with just cold water and some scrubbing. If she's still in heat be very careful walking her, I'd limit her to my yard, non-dog stores, and homes of people without dogs. |
Sorry for your loss. I agree peroxide will take out blood and almost any organic stain. As nurse for many years I really don't want to remember the types of stains I've had to remove. As for spaying your baby Izzy. 3 lbs. She was only 2 1/2 lbs when she was spayed and did fine. Do your research and find a vet experienced with small.yorkies. |
You are in our thoughts and prayers David |
I am so sorry for your loss but wow - what an amazing and beautiful love and connection they displayed. I am glad they are together and hope you are healing. Good laundry advice you got on here - adorable dog :) |
So sorry for your loss. Praying you find strength and comfort. |
So sorry you your loss, your Grandma must have loved your Grandpa very much, but that was so much for you to deal with at once. I'm worried about Priscilla, pregnancy is so hard on the little ones, and a female can get pregnant all her adult life, there will never be a period when you don't have to worry. I've read of so many accidents where just a visiting male puppy who they thought was too young to do this, impregnated the tiny Yorkie. Please find a good vet and get her fixed, there are some that specialize in toy breeds and will do everything to insure her safety. Do any tooth care needed at that time as well, tinies need diligent tooth care. Best of luck! |
I am trying to bring myself to getting her fixed, but I'm so worried. I am thinking about making an appointment and getting it done sometime in the Spring. |
I hope you can take some comfort in that your grandparents are in a place where they won't feel pain or suffer. And that they're together. If you decide to try the hydrogen peroxide method, try it on a small part of the corner first to test. It might not matter if your comforter is white but if it's not, I read that it could whiten the area? I think it depends on the material of the fabric... Here's a link I found with multiple methods of removing blood stains. 9 Ways to Remove Blood Stains - wikiHow |
Thank you all for your well wishes!!! I successfully got out all the stains! I used peroxide and some baking soda to scrub the spots |
I'm so sorry that you lost both your grandparents. What a lot of grief to have to deal with. I'm glad you got the stains out! |
I am very sorry for your loss! May they both RIP and sending you many hugs. My keylo was spayed between 10 and 12 weeks at less than two pounds and she came through although it may be the cause of her ct, spaying her so young but no solid proof.....to make myself feel better I check on what they use for anesthesia and I check that they will re weigh my baby prior to the procedure to ensure the proper dosage and then I researched to be sure it is a good quality anesthesia. That did help ease my fear alot when Cedric was neutered. Just a thought. |
