Talking Crappy interiors make dogs crap....











So story goes.... I drove home to Tampa to see this girl that I met on my cruise a few weeks back. I go inside to let the girl know I was there, not thinking she wouldn't be off yet. So I'm waiting for her to get off work and I left my dog in the car for 10 minutes. I go check on her and everything is fine. Then 5 minutes later, I go to put something in my car anddddd this is what I see

This is her...






Just a few minutes after the disaster...I wiped down the passenger seat already. That one was even worse


And she decided to walk all around my car!


The day after...before starting to clean. I had already wiped down everything with a paper towel to try to get as much as I could off the night before.






She somehow managed to get some on the door


The other door was much worse


And naked car...




I spent 8 hours cleaning the interior. Unfortunately, it got in all the little holes in the seats. I did everything I could...from using a terry towel, a brush, and even a tooth brush. Nothing would take it out of the holes. I sprayed probably 10x as much leather cleaner/condtioner as I should have to attempt to relieve the smell. FAIL! My car still smells like crap. I sprayed it down with Lexol leather conditioner a few days ago, which helped a little...but the crap smell is just as bad after sitting in the sun for more than 10 minutes.

Then I took her to the beach Sunday for some fun. I love my dog...


EDIT: Since I now know this is all over the internet now, I want to point out a few things. I know this was my fault. In regards to the G37 comment...I'm not a spoiled rich kid. I get it from everyone because I'm young, but every dollar in this car is mine and I've worked my *** off for it. My dog was in the car at night, with temps in the low 70s. The windows were half way down and the sunroof was open. I did my best to accommodate her. The car was in my sight the entire time...I could see her moving around in my car, unfortunately I didn't see her pooping. My dog was sick for 3 days following this incident...I've never once fed her table scraps or any food other than dog food. And the smell is pretty much gone. Lexol FTW!

wow, my dog somehow holds it until she got out of the car, she never goes in the car, that's 1200+miles trips and she just knows not to go inside our cars, but we don't have a Infiniti.

Let me borrow that dog for the next time I drive a Dodge Caliber. It has some of the worst interior plastics I've seen.
