What I dont understand is, You give the quilt away. It isnt yours any more. If they let the dog sleep on it, by god then the doggy gets to use it with love. how ever they show love. I had a great doggy who destroyed my bed quilt. she thougth it was ok to sleep on my bed if she rolled the bedding back. In doing so she put holes in my fist full size quilt. Ok not her fault she never was alowed to be on the bed. Yet you hear some people who get upset becasue a dog is lying on a quilt. big whoop.Fur babies think they are peole, make a nother one. if noe then dont complain how it is loved. your way is not of treating a quilt is not nessesarly thier way. You make em, they use em thier way, get over it.
