Elderly dog urine went through carpet I am replacing and stained the floor. The smell is not strong but still a little bit there. Maybe I am noseblind but others said it was just a little noticeable. Floor is still hard, not soft at all.
I have a girl who wants to come over I think I can postpone it at least a few days.
What's a quick fix? Clean, Sand, then hide with carpet?
Also feel free to talk shit about my living in filth, he was an inside dog and I loved him too much to throw him outside confused in his elder years.

Anon I will save this image and repost it every now and then just to farm disgust.

Truly you are blessed by Lord Nurgle.

Anyhow I don't know what's in your area but maybe black tarp it and put caution tape around it and just tell her that section requires refinishing.

Be nonchalant.

What the fuck is that carpet?
Also, put the dog to sleep, they get useless after 10 years or less anyway.

sand it down and get it as clean as you can. Full refinishing can come later as long as it doesn't get re-pissed in its unfinished state.. Open a few windows and use fans to air out your place just before your friend comes over.

You sure it's a dog and not an endoparasitoid extraterrestrial alien with acidic blood?

You sound like a woman who gets emotional when anyone criticizes their incontinent pet. Grow up nigga, get another dog, they take less than 6 months to fully grow up.

KEK

OP, put a tape outline of a body within the stain. Tell her that’s what’s left of the last person that asked too many fucking questions. Get laid. Thank me later.

Buy a box of borax, turn it into a paste and cover the stain with it after rough sanding the floor. Leave a sheet of plastic over it for a few days to keep it from drying out so it can soak in then let it dry then scrape it off. Cover the spot with spray polyurethane afterwards. Should work perfectly.

Looks less like dog piss and more like the mark a rotting body leaves, jeez no wonder you want to hide it from your next victi-I mean date

OP here I put some H2O2 on it and it lifted the smell a little bit.
I stripped 1/32" then did another H2O2 treatment (only on part of the floor). It only smells if I literally put my nose on the floor. I'm gonna scrape the whole area, do a few H2O2 sessions, and if it doesn't smell anymore finally lay the new carpet over it. Hopefully no one will no but me. I told the date we could only meet at her place for now and it worked.

Thanks, if this helps i will do this. If borax helps I will do that too.

Peroxide isn't the right choice. You need to use actual bleach, as well as oxalic acid.
