I have had to hand wash them kind of...while my washer was broken I took them out in the yard and hung them on a chair and used the garden hose to rinse them off. It worked beautifully and then I dried them, but there was a smell, not a bad smell, to them. Not a bad smell mind you, but strange to me because there was no bleach.

Do you have a garden hose you can use? Without a dryer, you need to hang them up until they dry...
No, I don't have a hose to use, or really a clothes line, just thought I could hang one on the towel bar in the shower. I'm in a 3rd story apt. so my options are limited.
I just hate it because I can always smell pee in my bathroom (where her pads are). I don't know if everyone smells it or I just have it in my head that I do, but I hate it. She uses a holder now & I often clean the floor with a bleach spray then OUT! odor remover, so I thought I'd try something different if possible. Her dirty ones get tied in a bag & put by the front door so it can't be from that.
