    If your hoover smells of dog and you haven't got a dog then you have a problem

    My dog pee'ed on my hoover - don't ask, I have no idea how it happened either, she never goes in the house! - and after giving it a good clean with stardrops, I put a couple of tumble dryer sheets in beside the bag (its a Hetty vacuum) and that has really freshened it right up.

    Mine does that whenever he can get to it :mad:

    Since he grabbed the pipe whilst I was hoovering and it sucked his tongue up :eek: Now he exacts revenge whenever he gets the chance......
