Hi
For just a few spots
Nature’s Miracle should work. It is available at Petsmart. Make sure you follow the direction. The main reason that it fails is that people just sprays it on and wipe it up and not let it soak into the carpet and pad like the urine did. You may need to do this 2 or 3 time. Just reminder that the urine treatment product needs to go where the urine went for it to work properly. After you clean the spots, you should shampoo the carpet using this product on the front and back of rug.
For really bad urine smell
First thing you need to know is that urine is classified as carpet damage. 90 % of the urine sits in the under pad and that is the hardest to remove. This is the reason you smell it when you wet it. In most cases if you can smell it it’s pass the point of treating from the surface. To clean it properly it is a fairly big job
Things you will need: carpet-cleaning machine.
Chemical for removing urine I recommend (Nature's Miracle is a liquid containing enzymes that feed on the organisms that give urine its odours.), which you can buy at a pet store. (Some people have use vinegar (one part vinegar to five parts water)
New under pad for the carpet
1/ lift the carpet where you think the urine is. You can tell from the bottom side of the carpet by the watermarks. You will need to extract the backside of the carpet with the urine remove treatment product.
2/ cut out the entire infected under pad and wash the floor with the urine treatment.
3/replace the under pad with the new stuff
4/ as you are laying the carpet back down treat the top of the carpet with the urine treatment.
5/ When the carpet is all back you will need to clean the all of the carpet with the urine treatment product. Just reminder that the urine treatment product needs to go where the urine went for it to work properly.
In my experience, Nature's Miracle is your best bet. Good luck!

Spot treat it with a carpet cleaner that specializes in animal pee. If the spots are in the corner, you might want to pull up the carpet and clean the pad. Sometimes it gets in the pad and won't stop smelling until the pad is clean!
If the spots are not in the corner, dab up pee as much as possible before you use the cleaner. Take a towel and step on it really hard many times, this should help get most of the pee up. Then spot treat the stains with a cleaner. Make sure you get all of the cleaner off. Even the cleaners that say you can leave them on (no wiping) they still leave a residue!
Good Luck!

I have the same breed and the same problem. I found that if I blot up the urine with rags, paper towels and even newspaper, Sprinkle baking soda on area then to soak up even more of the urine. You then should follow with a mixture of white vinegar and water (not to hot or ice cold) with about 2 Cups to a gallon of water and generously saturate the spot with this solution for a few minutes. Then blot up the solution with rags or towels even stand on them.
Keep traffic off the area and place a fan or heater near to speed up drying. I have also found a product at the dollar store for pet urine removal to work well also called 'My Pet's Friend' - Urine Remover which they claim to be comparable in performance to one called 'Urine Gone!'

Look into Genesis 950. http://www.genesis950.
I have both cats and dogs and this has removed stains and odors for both of them. I have tried everything you can think of and nothing works. I had tried using Nature's Miracle all the time, but it always ended up smelling worse a few days later. The 950 is by far the best thing I have ever used.

A product called Urine Contamination Treatment gets rid of most urine odors. It can be found at Allsclean.com

Get resolve from your local supermarket and that should do the trick. They have sprays in the dog store that after you clean the area you spray and the dog will go in that area again.

Wash the carpet with soap and water. Then spray it with lysol spray.

baking soda. sprinkle it on, let it dry, vacuum. Some or all of the pee may have dried, so wet it with water and sprinkle soda.
