Our dog peed on our grey leather couch. There is no stain, but you can smell it. I didn't notice it until about 2 days in I am guessing! How do I get the smell out? Also the part where she peed you can not take out the stuffing. There is no zipper. Please help.

First thing to remember:
Do not use any product or suggestion that does not specify that it can be used on leather - even faux leather.
Second - always test any method on an inconspicuous part before actually using on your front sofa.
A solution of vinegar and water can be used safely. One cup vinegar / 2 cups water.
Use a soft cloth to wipe the area several times; always use a clean cloth the second/third time so the solution stays clean.
Wait a few minutes and then dry the area with another soft cloth - rub gently but several times. The seams may still be damp so use a hair dryer on low to finish drying (not too close to sofa). check it for dryness after a few hours.
You can also try sprinkling the area with baking soda as this will absorb odor from leather. Just be sure the area is completely dry before using baking soda.
Some people recommend using the baking soda then add the vinegar that will have foaming effect. Wipe clean and dry.
I have not tried this method.
You should probably use a good leather conditioner after you are sure the odor is gone.
Here is a natural way to help - 1 Cup of Vinegar + 2 Cups of cold water to wipe down the surface. Then use a neutralizing powder for the smell.
Natures Miracle will remove the odor. You can get it on Amazon.
