Accidents happen.<\/strong> When our pets have accidents, it can be especially annoying.<\/p>\n

Cleaning carpeting and washing bedding can be a hassle, but it's not as difficult as it seems. Mattresses, on the other hand, can't be washed in a washing machine, and urine can penetrate much deeper into the material.<\/p>\n

If the smell is not thoroughly washed out, your dog will likely urinate in the<\/span> same place again!<\/p>\n

For these reasons, learning how to get dog pee out of a mattress<\/strong> is more challenging.<\/p>\n

If you're looking to save money and time, I can teach you how to do this quickly and easily.<\/p>\n

Most of the products I discuss in this guide may already be in your home. If you don't have them on hand, they'll only cost a few dollars to pick up at the grocery store.<\/p>\n

5 Tips on How to Get Dog Pee Out of a Mattress<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

1. React Quickly<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It\u2019s important to remove the traces of dog urine on the mattress as quickly as possible if you want the odor to disappear completely.<\/p>\n

When doing this, you have to be thorough because your pup has a sense of smell that is about a hundred times greater than yours<\/a>, so \u201cgood enough\u201d won\u2019t cut it.<\/p>\n

\"Dry<\/a>If the dog can still smell urine from the cleaned area, it will make him believe that it's a perfect place to relieve himself.<\/p>\n

Sometimes it\u2019s hard to see those stains, so use a pet urine detector<\/a> on the mattress to see where the smell comes from.<\/p>\n

2. Dry the Area<\/strong><\/h3>\n

After locating all dog urine spots on the mattress, dry the area immediately using paper towels or sponges. Dab instead of rubbing to avoid spreading the pet urine.<\/p>\n

Apply as much pressure as possible to soak up as much as you can.<\/p>\n

It's also best if you already have pre-made products designed explicitly for removing dog urine stains from furniture, carpet, and mattress, like these<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Use the instructions<\/strong> on the bottle, and these commercial dog pee stain eliminators will do exactly what you need them to do.<\/p>\n

However, if you prefer more natural DIY homemade solutions, the following ingredients will also work in ways to get dog pee out of a mattress.<\/p>\n

3. Use Vinegar and Baking Soda Solution<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Natural<\/a>One of the most effective home solutions for removing dog urine from a mattress is a mixture of vinegar and baking soda.<\/p>\n

Given that dog urine contains both alkaline and acidic substances, it is necessary to use a combination of these two natural acidic substances to remove the odor entirely.<\/p>\n

Dissolve 2 tablespoons of baking soda in 1 cup of white vinegar, then transfer the mixture to a spray bottle and apply it directly to the stained area<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You may need to use the solution several times until the smell has completely disappeared. Be sure to let the solution dry completely before reapplying.<\/p>\n

4. Try Hydrogen Peroxide and Dish Soap<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Another solution that you can use to get dog pee out of a mattress is a hydrogen peroxide and dish soap mixture.<\/p>\n

Mix 1 teaspoon of dish soap into 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide<\/a>, and stir until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.<\/p>\n

Put this mixture into a spray bottle as well and apply it exactly as stated above.<\/p>\n

Then, using a damp cloth, apply this concoction directly onto the dog pee stain on the mattress and allow it to dry.<\/p>\n

Like the previous method, you should repeat the process multiple times to get desirable results.<\/p>\n

5. Add Lemon Juice and Water<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Lemon<\/a>The most popular homemade remedy among pet owners is also the simplest one\u2014the mixture of lemon juice and water.<\/p>\n

The acidic nature of lemon can eliminate traces of urine, and personally, I like the scent that lemons leave behind better than vinegar.<\/p>\n

Also, dogs don't like the smell of citrus fruits. Not only will the lemon juice remove the urine odor, but it will also help to naturally repel your pet from soiling the mattress again.<\/p>\n

To try this home remedy, use a spray bottle of water to wet the area lightly.<\/p>\n

Cut a lemon in half, and rub the lemon directly onto the soiled area, then allow it to dry completely.<\/p>\n

You may need to repeat this method a few times before the smell completely disappears.<\/p>\n

Bonus Tip: Continue <\/strong>to Keep the Area Clean<\/strong><\/h3>\n

After removing the dog pee stain and smell from the mattress, you must train your puppy<\/a><\/strong> so that he won\u2019t repeat the mistake.<\/p>\n

If no technique seems to work, you can use commercial dog repellents<\/a> on furniture<\/strong> or prepare your DIY homemade repellents to scare the dog off from any problematic areas.<\/p>\n

For natural solutions of dog repellents, a helpful method is to scatter a bit of cayenne pepper<\/a><\/strong> on the area because it contains a molecule that slightly irritates a dog\u2019s skin, but not enough to cause them any problems.<\/p>\n

If your pup is exceptionally stubborn, you can try ammonia-based mixtures<\/strong> that make some of the most effective natural dog repellents.<\/p>\n

In general, homemade repellents are a little bothersome, and most owners will use commercial ones that are very effective.<\/p>\n

Whatever may trigger your dog to do its business on your mattress, it\u2019s essential to tackle the issue as soon as possible.<\/p>\n
