We have a large cream-colored area rug that covers most of our living area. I knew I was taking a big risk with 2 labs - black and chocolate. I vacuum it every day and so far it has been fine. Until today....
Texas has had storm after storm and our yard is just saturated. My chocolate lab has found a muddy area and came back inside with mud all over her paws and walked ALLLLL over the cream rug. I used a carpet cleaning spray and wet rag and managed to get most of it up. Took me over an hour on my knees scrubbing.
Well, guess what? The kids let her out and she did it again! The mud is even worse this time!! I could cry. The kids helped me this time, but there are still dingy spots.
How would you recommend best cleaning it from here? It is on top of real hardwood floors so I am reluctant to use a steam cleaner that may saturate the rug. I am stuck just spot treating as necessary?
