help getting urine smell out of carpet??? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I was wondering if anyone knows a good product to get the urine smell out of the carpet? I clean with normal carpet cleaners, but the smell still lingers later on... Any ideas??

Try, cleaning with soap, water, and vinegar...then put a tiny bit of vinegar in your puppy's water.

I have never heard of putting it in the dogs water. What does that do?

It is supposed to neutralize the odor, cut down on the odor from being as strong.

Hi Heather!!! I'm glad you found Yorkie Talk. I got some stuff at Wedington Animal called "Urine Off". It was a little pricey ($21.00 for a spray bottle), but it does work. I've also seen some similar products at Petsmart but I don't know how well they work. I have mostly wood floors, so it's been easier to keep clean, but I do launder some of my scatter rugs with a product from Sam's Club call "Odo-ban". It works great. I also mop my floors with Odo ban.

I'm so glad someone I've told about Yorkie Talk joined!!

Im not sure if the vets carry this product where you are, but the vet here in calif carries a product called Anti-Icky poo! I know what a name

But it does work! I mentioned this product before on YTalk but I dont think anyone bought it

because of the name! but It is guaranteed! It states on top of the bottle Gets the stink out or your money back! and it will and does work! amazing product! and I am only giving testimony not pushing a product

I don't know if it's a good idea to put vinegar in a pup's water?!!!!! Pee is suppose to smell like pee, I don't put vinegar in my water-so I wouldn't do it with my baby's water either. Be careful with that...

I am writing down all your ideas! Hey Tiffany!! I was wondering if I would see you on here! I am glad to see that people on here respond so quickly! I really appreciate all of your help. This is my first inside dog, as well as my first yorkie! He is so awesome! I don't think I will ever own anything else. We are looking to add to our yorkie family in January with a litttle girl yorkie! Once again I will write down your ideas, and please keep sending them!! THANKS, Heather :

i bought zep puppy odor remover from home depot it cleans the stain and leaves you with a nice refreshingh smell. It is only about 7.00 for a good size bottle

is an organic stain and smell extractor available at Petsmart. It works wonders, and it is so easy, you just squiggle some on the stain, use a small brush to rub in, and then place a clean towel or cloth on top. Come back in a few minutes, and it and the smell are GONE! I swear by this stuff, much better than Natures Miracle and I have two dogs. People come in my house and tell me that they cannot even tell I have two dogs except for them mauling their feet! LOL

Vinegar is a food product. Not so sure what the problem you see with putting it in the water would be. However, vinegar is used to get rid of the urine stain...not the odor. Since urine is an acid, and vinegar is too, urine wouldn't be neutralized with vinegar. It would take a strong base to neutralize the urine. Anyway, just FYI.
