Any top tips for removing the smell of dog from carpets?
We have just moved into a new rented house and the previous tenants had a dog. The hallway, stairs and landing carpets were changed before we moved in, the upstairs carpets were replaced when we arrived but the lounge and dining room carpets remain.
There is a definite whiff of dog lingering in the air.
Copious amounts of shake and vac or is there a better solution?
(Replacing the carpets is [u]not[/u]an option)
Ta in advance.
Oh, and buying our own stinky* dog is not an option either as Mrs B is allergic to them.
(* I love dogs and know that not all dogs are stinky)
Get a professional carpet cleaner in would be my advice - there'll be doggy oils in the pile of the carpet so anythign you do on the surface won't shift it.
Hire a Rug Doctor machine from B&Q.
We did, brought our 7 yr old cream carpets pretty much back to new, and lifted all marks / smells our puppy had made.
Cost £30 for a couple of days, and cleaned them much better than the 'professional' we had in a few years ago.
Rub a Cat on it... just like the white wine on red wine thingy, it's sure to work!
GTD - many thanks.

remove the dog, laminate flooring or laminate the dog. 🙂
I'm not sure I need to worry about the smell as my dog has no nose.
