How to clean dog urine

By Jerry Welsh


Potty training is not the responsibility of the breeder thus a new dog owner has to train the dog as soon as it was taken home. A pet owner must be ready to deal with the mess created by the dog as even well trained pets would still have accidents inside the house every now and then.

Any pet owner would be pissed if the pet that is already on the easy to clean tiled floor would still move to the carpet to do its smelly business. Can the dog have a grudge to settle and it is punishing the owner by making a mess on the carpet instead of on the easy to clean tiled floor? The dogs urine must be cleaned immediately not only because of the stain it will create but also to prevent the horrible smell from filling the house.

The spot soiled by the dog's urine must be cleaned not only because of the unsightly stains but also because dogs have the tendency to eliminate on the spot that has the smell of their excrements. Dogs have sensitive noses and they will be lured by the smell of their poop and pee to soil the same spot again.

Tiled floors are easier to clean as you simply need to blot the urine with old towels and use an equal measure of vinegar and water to clean the spot. Cleaning fresh urine will be easier as the puddle of urine that is not yet absorbed by the carpet can be soaked by using old towels. Towels are absorbent but you can help soak the urine by stepping on the folded towel to apply pressure. Replace the soaked towel with another and when urine is fully absorbed, you can sprinkle baking soda on the soiled spot to remove the horrible smell of the dog's urine.

Removing dog urine from rugs and carpets would be a little tricky especially if the dog has peed for quite a while and the evidence of the pet's misdeed is the horrible smell and the damp mark. If the urine has already dried and all you see on the carpet is the stain, you need pour about half a cup of vinegar and water mixture to the stain. Let the mixture set in for about five minutes and then use a folded towel to soak the liquid. After the urine is thoroughly soaked deodorize the stained spot by generously sprinkling baking soda. Run the vacuum cleaner over the soiled spot to remove any leftovers.
