How can I stop my hoover smelling of dog?

Hi

I have a washable filter on my hoover which I regularly rinse out etc - but it still stinks of dog when I hoover - is there anything I can use to clean it or put in the hoover ( bagless) to make it smell better ??

thanks

You can buy those vacuum airfreshners from the supermarket and just pop them in the wotsit (can't remember what its called that you empty ) I use them sometimes when I can remember to buy them - think they are made by airwick and in a green packet which contains 3 sachets - although I think they only come in one flavour - lily of the valley, but its okay.

i thought that was only for hoovers with bags in them - mine doesnt have a bag - do you just chuck it in the bit that collects all the dust ??

mmnn - anything is better than dog smell

Shake and vac, although it isn't good for doggy noses. You can get a freshener for bagless hoovers tho my mum uses them

You can impregnate a little piece of cloth with some essential oil you like & pop it inside

Lol you beat me to it - I use a piece of tissue with a few drops of essential oils and drop this in the bit that collects the dust or put a little bit on the filter itself.

In my vaccum with a bag I put it in the bag.

One of my dogs is allergic to Shake & Vac, so I have to use that sparingly.

I must be senile as i love that smell. I think dogs feet smell lovely!! Like wearing an old pair of comfy slippers! I need help!

My vacuum cleaner is bagless and I just pop the sachet in the drum thingy and it smells great when the cleaner is on

thanks all will try this tommorow - Luz - you are nuts !! LOL

its not a nice doggy smell its a wet dog and dead skin smell - pong !! I like bruno to smell nice !!

I know
