For eight years I have tried all sorts of "remedies" for the doggy smell that seems to be a part of having a canine companion, with varying success rates. Then a few days ago the current "fabric refresher" ran out so I used my Rexona deodorant on the dogs' minki blanket. To my pleased surprise it completely eliminated the doggy smell. I don't think the dogs are happy about it, but my van no longer smells like a kennel and I highly recommend it.

I have cleaned cars with spraying watered down fabric softener and rubbing over with wet towel to clean as well ..
