Since I wash all the blankets ALOT on this bed, I don't know if he'll ever be able to have & keep a really nice quilt on the bed without it showing wear. I usually just put a nice one on this bed when I have company & then go back to using an old one for everyday use.
I wonder if something made out of heavy fleese would work as a bedspread to cover up the bed with first & tuck in between mattress & box spring & then the old blankets for the dog to make his nest out of?

It sounds like your son does not want to train the dog off the bed - I don't blame him, I wouldn't either. It's a personal preference and he isn't doing anything wrong by letting him stay there.
Making up the bed for daytime should just include blankets that are designated for the dog, rather than going for the pretty. It's not like he's there to see it while this is going on anyway. :wink:
