7 Homemade Dog Pee Repellent Recipes

Use:	Indoors and outdoors
Ingredients:	Cayenne pepper, water

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 spray bottle full of water

Cayenne pepper can be used as a dog urine repellent in two ways. You can either rub the pepper directly onto the affected area, like the carpet or a couch cushion, or it can be mixed with water in a spray bottle for easier application. Just spray the areas that you want your dog to stay away from.

Be cautious when using cayenne. It can irritate your dog’s nasal passages if you use too much. The spray bottle option is safer for dogs and still effective.

Use:	Indoors and outdoors
Ingredients:	Essential oils, water

3–5 drops of eucalyptus, cinnamon, or sour apple essential oil

1 spray bottle full of water

Add the essential oil to the water, and shake the bottle to combine. Essential oils can be incredibly potent to your dog. Always make sure the oils that you use are safe for use around animals. Your dog should not be allowed to lick or walk on the sprayed surfaces until they are completely dry.

Once combined, spray the affected areas. Allow the area to dry. Repeat if necessary.

Use:	Indoors
Ingredients:	Lemon juice, water, baking soda

1 cup lemon juice (if lemons aren’t available, other citrus juice will work, such as orange, grapefruit, lime, and tangerine)

½ cup water

3 tablespoons baking soda

Combine the ingredients in a bowl. Adjust for more or less of the ingredients depending on how much you need. Apply the mixture over the affected area, and let it dry completely. Vacuum up the baking soda.

This process can be repeated as many times as necessary until your dog stops seeking out that area. Dogs don’t like citrus scents and should start to avoid the area.

Use:	Indoors and outdoors
Ingredients:	Citrus fruit, water

Fruit or fruit peels

Water

Simply cutting up citrus fruit, such as oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes, and tangerines and placing the pieces around the affected areas will be enough to keep dogs away. If you don’t want to waste fruit, you can use the peels instead.

Peels can be placed indoors around furniture and inside potted plants. They can also be scattered in the garden to keep dogs out. Cups of water filled with fruit peels or fruit juice placed on shelves near your furniture will also act as deterrents.

Use:	Indoors and outdoors
Ingredients:	Vinegar, water

One part white vinegar

One part hot water

White vinegar has disinfectant properties and a strong smell. Dogs don’t like this smell so it works well as a natural repellent.

Mix equal parts white vinegar and hot water in a spray bottle. Spray the affected area, and let it dry for at least 30 minutes before you let your dog go near it. The vinegar should keep them from wanting to pee in that area again.

For a stronger vinegar scent, soak cotton balls in vinegar, and place them in a bowl in the room high enough that your dog can’t reach them.

If you’re using this repellent recipe outdoors, be careful not to spray any plants. The vinegar can kill them. Spray the outer pots of potted plants, patios, and furniture. This is not for use in a garden.

Citrus Scents: Homemade Deterrent Solutions for Dog Urine

Yes, citrus scents will keep your dog away from certain areas. Grab your fruit of choice (orange, lemon, lime, etc.) and cut them up. Place the citrus fruit in and around plants to keep your dog from urinating on them.

This solution is appropriate for indoor or outdoor plants. If you don’t want to waste the fruit, use the peel from the fruit as a deterrent. To protect your furniture from dog elimination, place a cup of lemon water on a higher surface near the couches and chairs.
