Not.
I have to throw out a perfectly goid duvet.
Naughty dog got into the spare room...and decided to piddle on the bed. The duvet is too thick and bulky to fit in the washing machine.
*sigh*

I had an incontinent senile cat whose aim in later life was to piddle on beds. I covered all beds with large waterproof/towelling mattress covers. Worked well
Have you got a launderette near by, they are allowed to open. Found the following advice:
Advice for Launderette customers:
If you are self-isolating due to the display of symptoms, please leave an extra 72 hours at the end of your 7 or 14 day isolation period before visiting a launderette or sending laundry to be processed.

Before taking your laundry to a launderette, whether to use the machines yourself or for a service was, shake out your items well at home, and place unfolded in your bag. Wash your hands thoroughly before leaving home.

Where possible when using machines, place the mouth/opening of your bag directly into the machine and tip your articles in. You may wish to consider wearing your own rubber gloves.

Only let your hands touch the surfaces you need to in order to operate and load / unload machines.

Keep a reasonable distance between staff and other customers using the facilities.

Keep any children under close supervision and do not let them run around touching everything.

Take all your rubbish home.

Closest laundrette is about a 20 minute walk...no bus in that direction. And carrying the damn thing is not my idea of fun. Oh well...
The replacement will be a lighter tog that fits in the machine.
You could always take the pee stained fabric out into the garden to try train the dog to always pee in that area?

Has every body got a garden?
Not everyone has a dog so not sure what your point is?
I have, but I don't have a dog.

Typical eh?
I could pop round and pee on your duvet if that helps, doogie?

>>>>>>>>Has every body got a garden?>>>>>>>
Nope...unless you count the lawned area outside my flat.
Well if you don’t have a garden can’t blame the dog for not peeing in it can ya
You could still use the fabric to train the dog to urinate in a certain section of the grass area outside the front of your flat
Not sure the neighbours wold be enamoured at turning the communal lawn into a dog toilet training area, I know mine wouldn't.
Pasta, I am guessing, if you don't have a big garden then your dog must be small, this is the spare room so why not just wash the stained area of the duvet with some detergent and water and let dry, it's a shame to waste a good duvet and washing all of it for one stain seems a waste, no more than the waste of getting rid of it.

Hang it on the washing line, use a bucket of hot soapy water and dunk the relevant patch into it then hose the area off with cold water. Then if you really don't want to use it on a bed make or buy a cover and give it to the dog for a nice comfortable bed.
Bigger dog than I imagined mamya, but gorgeous
He is for sure.
:) I still stand by my advice at 20.56
