So my old pooch seems to have had a seizure. He seems ok, but he peed on my sofa in the process. I’ve found a few suggestions online, but I wanted to check with he brain trust here. So far blotting with dilute soap solution hasn’t really helped the odor. Even if I get the smell out, I’m worried about a water ring. Any testimonials?

Urine Be Gone worked somewhat for the cat peeing on the carpet and thats a pretty tall order. I think it would easily take care of dog pee on leather

I have an amino acid compound I use that works on getting the smell out of town. My pup has seiures as well. He shits himself too but they are charcole briquettes. I realize that I'm saying this like I'm proud. No. I'm cleaning up dog shite after this mofo. I love him but I mean...

The bigger question is "Why are you letting animals on your furniture?"

They have dog bedding that comes in all sizes that Fido can relax on and not be all over the household furniture that PEOPLE sit on. Hence, no urine to remove from your once nice leather sofa.

Pet owners become "nose blind" to the odors their pets have, and they have them, and don't notice it like someone who has no pets in their house would.

My wife and I will visit our sister-in-law and she has animals in her house and it is evident as soon as you walk in the door. Then when we leave, there's the pet hair all over the clothes because it's on just about every piece of furniture she owns since the cats jump up on everything.

Had something similar with cat urine on a new couch. Put in an insurance claim and they used the purple odo ban & a bissell handheld pet stain.

It worked perfectly, but we caught it within 30 minutes and immediately stripped the cushions and put down towels to soak up the excess.

When I have had furniture professionally cleaned, they would leave the furniture a little wet to let the cleaner soak into thicker cushions. But, I don't know what they used and/or at what concentration

As clear a lack of self-awareness and tact as you have, I am not surprised by that reaction.

I’m well aware of the pros and cons of indoor pets. I don’t need Karens like you providing advice about how I keep my home.

You're right, I'm blunt in some of my responses, but I'm not the one looking for solutions to remove the piss smell off my expensive leather couch.

I'm just the one pointing out the obvious------and you don't like it.

Oh I don’t dislike it (or altogether disagree with it), it’s just completely and utterly useless advice at this juncture. Your advice, quite literally, could not be of less help to me or anyone else actively trying to solve the problem for which this thread was created.

Why even post this? You're just acting like a douche bag for no reason. He asked how to get urine out of his couch, not gumbo's opinion of animals on furniture.

Go be a tool on the OT lounge, no room for it here.

To answer the OP, we have used this product for odors and it works well, but if you get the concentrate, it does have an orange tint to it if you don't dilute it well. The spray really doesn't.

ETA:

It smells very strongly of citrus for a bit, but when it disappears so does the smell it was used to eradicate.

My toddler has peed on carpet in our house a few times and it's been great for that.

I empathize and sympathize with you. Had an 87 year old incontinent dementia riddled mother in law do the same thing once when she let her depends fill past capacity.

Thanks for the lesson, and I noticed you didn’t contribute a damn thing to his question.

You need a mildly acidic detergent combo I have seen a few recipes on the net but worry about color most couches are chrome tanned dyed and are tough always test a spot first

Vinegar and baking soda. Spray the Vinegar. Apply baking soda. When dry, vacuum up.
