As the fabric tears, bite marks and loose stuffing can confirm, dogs sure do love their toys. From rubber to plush, squeaky to (mercifully) silent, if you're a dog owner there's a good chance your home is littered with dog toys, often in various states of disrepair. It's a good thing pet stores have plenty of cheap ones!

Even if your dogs aren't the type to slobber all over a toy, their playthings do still get plenty dirty. Dust, hair and other gunk tend to accumulate on toys due to your pooch's endless gnawing and pawing at them. There's a reason we call them chew toys!

Popular household cleaners and laundry detergents won�t eliminate tough stains and odors left behind by your dog, and some products may contain substances which can irritate your dog's sensitive nose. Simple Green Bio Dog Stain & Odor Remover is surface safe, with a formula that eliminates stains and odor. It lifts new, old and set-in stains and quickly eliminates odors from animal waste, blood, vomit, grass, mud and more.

Directions For Cleaning Dog Toys:

If the toys are cloth or fabric, be sure to check the cleaning label on them first.

Rubber Toys:

1. Apply cleaner. Shake the container gently. Spray Simple Green Bio Dog on the surface, or onto a microfiber cloth to wipe-apply.
2. Scrub. Use a nylon-bristled brush or toothbrush to scrub away any grime or dirt.
3. Rinse. Rinse the toy with clean water.
4. Dry. Air dry or wipe with a clean, dry cloth.

Fabric Toys:

1. Apply product. Shake the container gently. Thoroughly saturate any stained or excessively dirty areas.
