My dog urinated on the bed during a thunderstorm when he was stressed. I washed the cover but how do I get the urine smell out of the memory foam?

I'm checking out this bed because it's waterproof (or supposed to be). How did your dog urinate through the waterproof cover? Is it not what it claims to be?

Go to a pet shop and buy OUTRIGHT enzyme urine remover. The trick is to saturate thoroughly making sure to get it wet all the way through the foam. Cover with a damp towel for 24 hours. Let the foam air dry, preferably in the sunshine. If the stain still smells, turn the foam over and repeat the process.

I abandoned this bed. My dog destroyed it. "Incredible" cleaner from bed bath and beyond does great at getting the smell out of mattresses though.

It will probably help. The thing you're probably overlooking is the "depth" of the smell. The urine probably soaked through the carpet and into the padding. You'll need to pull the carpet back from the nearest edge and roll it back over itself. You'll probably see the old stain on the back side. Treat the padding (or replace it) and the back side of the carpet. Nature's Miracle is very effective because it destroys the source of the odor, it doesn't just mask it.

I didn't get the recommended carter ones but what I did is put a waterproof pad at the bottom of the bed and a regular twin bed fitted sheet over the whole thing. That way you just have to clean sheet instead of taking pads out if the bed to wash cover and put all back together. You also protect foam pieces in case of a toilet training accident.

We did after our cat peed on the bed. No problems at all with removing the cover. It washed and dried beautifully in the machine. Re zipped and back to bed. We took care of the mattress itself although not much pee seeped in. Thank God.

It is part of the bed. The cover has a zipper and you can remove the inside memory foam piece and throw it in the washer but I haven't needed to do that. I just wipe it down with a cloth and seems to be fine. My dog absolutely loves it.

Can you put this in the washer? How are you suppose to clean this when they have accidents!! i dont want it to smell like pee!

Thank you for your question Elizabeth; here are a few tips: 1) Remove excess stain or pet urine first, utilizing a highly absorbent towel. 2) Apply a generous amount of pet urine stain remover to the affected area and allow to stand. For tough odors, both carpet and underlying pad must be thoroughly treated. Allow to stand 60 min. 3) Fold the towel and lay it on the treated area allowing it to absorb the excess liquid out of the carpet pad. 4) Once dried, inspect, and then vacuum the treated area. If stain and odor remains, repeat the above procedure.

Think the instructions say something about cleaning it but if not I'd mix a little bleach and water swish it around should help with the smell

I really don't know. I sucked up as much of the urine as possible with a wet vac. Next I cleaned and rinsed taking up as much water as possible. Then I soaked the area. Like magic no more odor. If you don't fully soak the area it won't be as effective. After many years of puppies and later old dogs this is the best product to eliminate odor.

One other thing...after rinsing off beach water. Hang inside out to dry. Be sure NOT to use a metal/wire hanger. I can't stress this enough, but be sure you keep it outside of your house. Regardless how you wash it, it will get a funk smell. Almost like a dead animal, this is common due to the material that is use. Once it goes back in the ocean, you don't notice the smell. If you need to transport from the house to the beach. Haul it in the trunk.

Put it in the dryer on low for an hour with a dryer sheet, or wet a washcloth with fabric softener. It may take a few cycles but it will go away. I have had mine for three days now and no odor at all.

I washed the crate. Sprayed it with Nature's Miracle and then washed it again with Dawn and water. Rinsed it and the smell did go away. My dog loves the crate and sleeps in it at night. I have two and carry one in the car constantly. When I visit etc. I use it for my peace of mind. Lorraine

My dog had an accident on my bed set because of the Oder : ( had to wash in in the washer machine but dry the quilt in low heat so not to tear it!! Washes well dry low!!!

Use Nature's Miracle (they sell it here or go to Petco). This is made from enzymes. The fabric needs to be completely saturated with the Nature's Miracle, then allowed to dry. You don't have to remove the fabric! Washing will not remove cat pee and the plastic in your washer will smell like pee afterward. You need enzymes to remove it. It is easy and I speak from experience: My neutered male cat started peeing in odd places when he had a feline urinary infection. The Vet took care of this and now he eats a diet with no fish. Good Luck!

My chair didn't have an odor after unpacking it. Maybe use an air purifier next to it for a few days. I had to do that with my foam pad for my bed. That really had a bad smell. Hope this helps.....You could probably air it outside for 24 hours too.

I had mouse urine odor in my truck, and I used coffee. Get some cheap coffee, pour the grounds into a shallow container, slide it under the seat, and the odor will be gone in a day. It works great for other odors, too. I even put it in the cabinets of a house I'm renting to eliminate a musty odor from the dirt crawlspace.

I'm assuming it's due to memory foam. Most memory foam has strong smell. Mine didn't last long
