How To Clean A Couch From Dog Pee

If your dog has had an accident on your couch, don't panic. With a little elbow grease, you can clean it up and get rid of the smell. Here's how:

Blot up the urine.

Use a clean, dry cloth to blot up as much of the urine as possible. Don't rub, as this will only spread the urine around.

Make a cleaning solution.

In a bowl, mix together 1 cup of white vinegar with 1 cup of water. You can also add a few drops of essential oil, such as tea tree oil or lavender oil, to help deodorize the couch.

Apply the cleaning solution to the stain.

Dip a clean cloth into the cleaning solution and apply it to the stain. Let it sit for a few minutes, then blot it up with a clean, dry cloth.

Rinse the area.

Once the stain has been removed, rinse the area with clean water. Blot it up with a clean, dry cloth.

Dry the area.

Use a fan or hair dryer to dry the area completely. This will help prevent mold and mildew from growing.

If the stain is still visible after cleaning, you can try using a commercial upholstery cleaner. Follow the directions on the product label.

Here are some additional tips for cleaning dog urine from a couch:

Act quickly. The sooner you clean up the urine, the less likely it is to set in and become permanent.
If the stain is large or has soaked into the couch, you may need to have it professionally cleaned.
To prevent your dog from urinating on the couch again, make sure to take them outside frequently and praise them when they go outside.
