I had asked a couple of days ago about a musty rug. I have since shampooed it and left it outside to dry and the smell is still there. We called the original owner and he said a dog 'may' have urinated on it at some point. The thing is, the smell seems to come mostly from the underside and it doesn't really smell like urine.
I can understand the dog taking a leak on the underside because the rug was rolled up in his garage for some time. Anybody got any experience with the smell of old dog's urine? It is a kind of mustyish, kinda bad smell. It certainly makes the rug unusable. If it's very old urine, any suggestions for cleaning it properly? The rug itself was very 'clean' as I got almost no dirt out when I shampooed the top and underside of it.
Thanks.
