    There are cleaners specifically designed for cleaning leather, I have no idea if they would help with pet odor. No first hand experience with indoor pets.

      Training your dog is the only long-term solution, OP.


      I love my dog so much but it constantly did the things that irked me most. It would chew on things that it shouldn’t or jump up and down out of the blue. Whenever I put on the leash, it would pull on it. Whenever it was out of the house, it would continue digging on the ground - I wish I could tell what it was looking for down there. All the things it did left me feeling depressed as if I failed it monumentally.


      But since I discovered Brain Training for Dogs and applied the system offered, it now behaves the way a beautiful dog I always expect of.

    I just had to clean some leather furniture that a dog used for his personal bed in order to stage a house with it. I used baby wipes and the furniture looks great and no odors! The baby wipes actually re moisturizered the leather and covered up all of the claw marks too. They do make leather cleaning wipes as well in the auto care sections if the baby wipes don't work for you. Good luck!

    A shoe-repair owner told me to use isopropyl alcohol to kill odor-causing mold, bacteria, etc. We've used it on shoes, a leather coat, our recliner and more. We keep some in a well-labeled spray bottle, mist it liberally on the the item, it dries almost instantly, then I wipe it down just to make sure there aren't any puddles in seams, etc. If first try doesn't do it, repeat! Good luck!

    What about the leather soap used on saddles. Anyone know if that would work?

    Hi Derek, hope this helps you out, it can be done!

    Vacuum it thoroughly and then rub it down with a damp cloth. Then choose a deodorizing spray such as Odorban, Febreze, or white distilled vinegar. Finish up with a leather conditioner.
