Is it safe to use any kind of detergent or dryer sheets on my clothes or bedding even when my dog sleeps in bed with me? Can this harm him in any way?

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question. I recommend using a mild or sensitive detergent, that it what I have used on my sheets and clothing, and have never had a problem with my dogs even when they sleep in the bed with me. Dryer sheets are fine too, the only problem comes if the dog ingests them. I hope this helps!
