Wet Dog

Post by Nanook »

How do you get the smell of wet dog out?

It was pouring down rain today, and i noticed my neighbor's dog trotting along the highway! They were relieved to find her safe and sound (dog has no car smarts) but now my Baja smells like rotten fish.
Any good advice?

Hmmm... how about a bowl of vinegar placed in the car overnight?

Ummm, isn't the main reason we buy the baja is to put stinky dirty things in the bed??? JK, have you tried Fabreeze (sp?). There is also something you can buy at the hardware store that comes in a small tub. I can't remember the name, but it got the smell of dead critter out of a wall that it died in. I'll try to get a brand out to you tomorrow.

Our black lab not only got in wet from rain, but seawater = P-U! He has also puked in it and once hid some bacon from McDonald's in between the seat... luckily, I clean it a bare minimum of twice a week!

Let it dry out and vacuum it with the bare nozzle. The fabric and carpet cleans easily in this car.

Then get the "ALL" brand fabric freshener, it works and smells better... spray the heck out of it and let it dry with the windows closed.
Good luck!
