Get Rid Of Dog Smell

If you own a dog chances are you also own dog smell – such is the price of owning a dog. Unfortunately you cannot completely get rid of a dog smell (unless you also get rid of the dog.) However, a clean dog doesn’t smell that bad, when people say they want to get rid of dog smell, it usually falls under more unusual situation. Then again, can you really call it “unusual” if it happens pretty darn often? At any rate dog smell can be put into two categories:

1) The dog itself smells – there are a large number of reasons why this may be the case. However as this article is focused on category 2, we won’t be looking at this first category too closely. If a dog smells (really bad) you might want to give it a nice bath – dogs love to roll on all sorts of nasty things and that smell gets stuck to them, there might also be something stuck to a dogs coat or paws. It could also have some sort of infection that is producing the bad odor.

2) The dog itself doesn’t smell (too bad) but it has peed all over the place, and that certainly does stink. If this is the case then there are a few things you can do. Obviously try to clean up after your dog as soon as you can, if you let dog urine dry up.. well, you’ll wish you haven’t as the smell will get both much worse and be much harder to get rid of.

You can also use one of the many dog smell remover products (you can also use a vinegar and baking soda to do this.) You can try a product called Odaban. It is sold at Walmart, and by the gallon at Sam’s wholesale Club. It works very well and also kills germs, and is inexpensive. You can also use enzymatic cleaners such as Simple Solution, Capture Pet Stain, Nature’s Miracle, Odor Neutralizer or Complete Pet Stain.
