Dog Urine On Leather Couch

Dog urine contains uric acid, which can cause permanent staining and damage to the leather if not properly removed. However, it is possible to clean dog urine from a leather couch and prevent further damage. Acting quickly and using the right cleaning methods can greatly increase your chances of successfully removing the urine and restoring the appearance of your couch.

Blot up as much of the urine as possible using a clean, absorbent cloth or paper towels. Do not rub the urine, as this can work it further into the leather.

Mix a solution of one part white vinegar to one part water in a spray bottle. Spray the solution onto the affected area and allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes.

Wipe away the vinegar solution with a clean, damp cloth.

Rinse the area with water and wipe it dry.

Apply a leather cleaner to the affected area and follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Condition the leather with a leather conditioner to help prevent future stains.
