Potty training is one of the most important elements in raising a puppy to be a happy, healthy dog with indoor privileges. During this essential process, you'll also need to plan for accidents and have a clean-up strategy to avoid stains. One tried and true way to eliminate lingering marks and odors from puppy potty training accidents is with a 50/50 vinegar-water mix. Read on for the steps to get started.
Things You'll Need
- Vinegar
- Water
- Spray bottle
Instructions
Fill a spray bottle half-way with water.
Fill the remainder of the bottle with white vinegar, which can be found at grocery stores.
Be on the lookout for accidents while your puppy is potty training, and clean the area with a regular carpet or all-purpose cleanser.
Spray the affected area with the vinegar-water mixture, which should eliminate any absorbed odors of feces or urine, dissuading your pup from using that spot as a toilet again.
