Just cit it in manageable lengths, then wash it with a cup of white vinegar and laundry soap, to get rid of the odor.

I was going to say shoot the little b.....d but he looks so cute! I feel very sorry for you having to wash strips of fabrics I would lock him out of my sewing area from now on.

I belong to a rescue group for Bichons. We often have male dogs with the marking problem, especially when they are put into foster care. They try to mark everything. We make belly bands and provide them to the foster moms and the adoptive moms. They are so easy to make and are a great thing to protect your property.

I started noticing an odor, could not figure out where it was coming from. Turns out, the little runt (weighs 6 lbs) had lifted his leg on the end of the bolt-- the fabric is mottled, so it was not noticed even with some scrutiny. I really did not want to wash the whole bolt, so now I'm cutting, and hand washing those strips that were affected as I go.
I can tell you now, that there is nothing quite like the smell of warm ironed dog pee......and he's my daughter's dog! |
well you know what Jackson thinks of the fabric.

Just a note on some of the replies, dogs that are nutured, and cats too, still mark there territory, so that doesn't solve the problem. and some of our little female furbabies also lift their little leg to take a leak, at least my baby does.

That's why girl dogs are better, don't lift their legs.

I can relate to that. We inherited my father-in-laws dog when he passed. He would lift his leg every chance he and got. I threw him out the door in a snow storm, when I cooled down I brought him in and caged him. Then we started taking him for walks so he would empty his bladder. He was caged at night and everytime we left the house. Eventually we broke him because he didnt like the cage.
