Removing Dog Urine From Carpet

If you share your home with a dog, or any pet really, you’ll encounter urine, feces or vomit. It’s part of it. 🙂 Next, you’ll have to find out how to remove dog urine. With so many products out there, which works best? I’ve gathered product recommendations from top dog trainers, breeders and show folks. See what products really work.

Nature’s Miracle

This product has been around for awhile and is highly recommended by top dog trainers. All products contain an effective bio enzyme cleaner, meaning not only will it remove the stain, but the enzymes will also remove odor. This prevents dogs from pottying in the spot again. Personally, I’ve added the Nature’s Miracle Orange Oxy Pet Stain Remover to our carpet cleaning machine, which really removed pet odors and left a clean orange scent behind. And I shared my home with four Bouviers. We have white carpet — what was I thinking?

As for removing old stains, it was okay. It works really well on fresh urine carpet spots, dog crates, dog laundry and messes on hardwood floors.

Biokleen Bac-Out Stain and Odor Removal

This is a newer product on the market, but highly recommended by seasoned dog people. So much so, I’m going to give this a try! Bac-Out contains a “blend of natural live enzyme cultures, citrus extracts and plant-based surfactants,” which is effective for removing odor and stains. This product is excellent for removing laundry stains (children or dog made), old urine, blood, vomit and fecal stains quickly.

Fizzion Pet Stain & Odor Remover

With an Amazon rating of 4.7 stars (244 reviews), I would say this is a pretty effective product! Fizzion Pet Stain & Odor Remover is another dog trainer favorite and highly recommended by professional car cleaning businesses. Plus it’s received glowing reviews from cat enthusiasts (now that means something!). This product is definitely worth a try! Not only will this product remove odor (using enzyme-based cleaners), it will also remove really tough cat odors (cat urine is the worst!). Add one tablet to 8 ounces of water. It works great in steam cleaners or on its own.

Folex Instant Carpet Stain Remover

Looking for a scent-free, yet effective stain remover? Try Folex! This product is water-based, “non-toxic, completely non-irritating to normal skin; non-flammable, contains no solvents of any kind; odor-free, no unpleasant chemicals; CFC and Petroleum Free” per Folex’s website. Plus, you can use this product on everything!
