Several months ago we bought a Hoover SteamVac, our first carpet cleaner. The choice was driven by the fact that the local store had a huge sale, so we ended up getting it for about half-price. Anyway, we also picked up a bottle of Hoover Premium Pet Formula Carpet and Upholstery Detergent since the main reason for purchasing the carpet cleaner in the first place was to do a good cleaning job on some of our large area rugs that our dogs occasionally "claim" as their own. The bottle does not have an ingredient list, but the label does say that it contains enzymes. I don't know if Bissell has a similar pet formula, but I would think the Hoover one might work just as well in a Bissell machine. Good luck!

I find B.O.S.S. far better than any of the Nature's Miracle cleaners. I buy it locally at a small pet store.

Pros: -Thin and very fluid. -Does not leave clothes feeling coated, waxy or heavy. -Does not leave gooey residue in FS compartment. -Clothes feel very soft, silky and smooth, but not over-softened. -Pairs nicely with classic Tide powder. Cons: -Does not (to me) smell good with Persil Pro-caps...no "bad" smells, just too perfumed. -Smell is prominent! If you enjoy scented laundry, this is probably a good choice. I agree with Miami Mami...the scent is "off" and "weird". I do not dislike, but I do not love it. For being something marketed as an odor killer, I do not understand why the scent is not more herbal and bracing and fresh. I personally like the scent better in the bottle, than after drying. Target Spring Bloom softener is MUCH better, but at least I do not hate this Snuggle. I cannot recommend, but for some it might be worth a try!

Pat..LOL...you may regret asking...the boys are well and looking forward to summer vacation, Tim has consistantly gotton all A's this year in gifted classes...Anthony, the youngest does all A's , but he thinks he's employed by the school system and tells everyone what to do and how to do it. My hubs is....physically doing ok, mentally he's a pain where a pill won't reach..some days I'm ready to pack his stuff..he's got to be the most difficult man on earth. Amiee is so-so. Found out a few days ago her pain management doctor at Childrens hospital Pittsburgh won't be able to see her after July do to her age..Hospital admin. Is breathing fire down this doctors neck about treating kids over 19..big problem for us since it means educating a new doctor providing we can find one to see her. Its a shame since her current doc has been seeing her for 13 years and has worked a lot of off time learning about Amiees condition. I'm going to start searching next week. Our main sewage pipe had a clog...and we found a crack in several pipes soooo the digging has begun to lay all new pipes....my dog was seriously ill/hurt but thankfully recovering, Other than that all is just great in my shanty... Pat how about you, you must be hurting lugging all that water...how's your hubs doing? I think about you and him daily. His chemos are over????
