Wet dog smell

How can I get this wet dog smell off of my couch? I think he must of rolled around all over it after having a bath. Now my couch smells like wet dog. Do you have any ideas how to get the smell out?

Try sprinkling some backing soda on it, lit it sit for a few minutes about 5, and the vacuuming it up, backing soda is good for getting up different oders up. I also use it on my carpets every so often to keep them smelling fresh, it is not as expensive as commercial cleaners, and it is non toxic.

Odoban works far better then Febreeze.

Try Zero Oder. There is a fresh scent while it is wet but has no scent once it has done its thing. You can order online at www.zeroodor.com It was featured on The View as one of Woopie's favorite products. I tried it and it WORKS. For really stubborn odors it may take a couple of treatments but once gone the odor is gone for good with no perfume cover up like Fabreez.

You could try some Febreeze. Is it a couch you could vacuum off? If so you could sprinkle some baking soda on it and let it sit for awhile before vacuuming up the baking soda off the cushions. It might help a little bit.

Try sprinkling some baking soda all over the couch. Let it sit for a little while. Then use the vacuum to get it up. If you have some Febreze spray the couch all over when you are done.

wash your coach with carpet shampoo and then you can spray fabreeze on the coach and it will come back to normal.

I think they have resolve for furniture to get out pet odors and also I would use a nuetalizing spray on the couch.. If you use fragances they just mask the smell you want something that is going to nuetalize the odor. LOL!!

After my dog having a bath, I always put her on a high basket of my bike , and use the hair-drier to dry the hair quickly. And my dog is in love with it.
