How to Get Dog Urine Stains out of Wool

It is possible to remove dog urine stains from wool carpet and rugs, so that they do not become a permanent fixture to the fabric. No matter how well your dog is house trained, accidents cannot always be avoided. Due to the fact that urine has a particular smell to it, its stain is one that you should remove as quickly as possible. With a little white vinegar you can get the urine stains out and your wool fabric back to its former condition.

Instructions

    • 1

      Soak up any remaining urine with paper towels, in order to prevent the stain from becoming worse.

    • 2

      Pour cool water on the soiled area to dilute the stain. Blot the stain with water and a sponge to rinse out as much of the urine as possible.

    • 3

      Add a mixture of white vinegar and cool water in equal amounts to the spray bottle, then spray the affected area. The acid in the vinegar breaks down the mineral elements of the urine, allowing for further removal.

      Clean up the white vinegar and water with a clean rag or towel. Allow the wool fabric to air dry. Repeat the stain removal process until it is no longer apparent.
