    Is there a way to clean a mattress?

    My bed was completely stripped and I just got back from walking the dog after he'd walked right into a mud puddle.

    Well, you can guess what he did . . . . yep, jumped right up on my bed with his muddy paws. And he was very pleased with himself.

    Anyone know if there's a way to clean a muddy mattress?

    Thanks.

    I would think that if it's mudd, don't try to wipe it off now, cause mudd spreads. Maybe wait untill it dries, like into dirt/dust, and then try to wipe at it. Maybe even a carpet shampooer?

    I have used a carpet shampooer on mine before. I did it on my previous one too .. just make sure you suck up the water really well and if you have a ceiling fan, or even a regular fan turn it on to help it dry.
    They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them. Distance and time may separate us but friendship and memories won't.

    They said on some show a while back that you should vacuum your bed once a month, so I'd try running the vac over it once it dried... but I guess if you wanna sleep in it you can't do that.
