Hi,
I bought a So Soft Taffy the other day. She's in beautiful condition but she smells so bad! She's completely taken out my pony room and even the hallway outside the pony room. :blink: I'm not sure what the smell is, I don't think it's smoke....but I'm not sure.
I was wondering if anyone could give me advise on how to fix the smell?
Thanks! :)

I got one that smelled of smoke and feet. I washed her well in dawn and when she was dry I covered her in baking soda. After rinsing that off a day later,she didn't make my house smell bad anymore. Some smells are worse than others. Good luck!

Thank you! I'll try that :)

Baking soda is your best bet especially with how delicate the SS flocking is. I would stand her up in a little sealed plastic container of it and see how long it takes to get the smell to go away. Kitty litter will also help - you can line the bottom of the container with one, then the other!

I'd also suggest a rotation of x days in soda box, x days outside to air out, repeat. Good luck! :)

This is what I use and it always works...although depending on the issue you can need a lot of repeat cycles.
I hope you get her all lovely soon.

Smoke I understand, but...feet??

Thank you everyone for your help! I've just put Taffy in a container with baking soda, so hopefully she will be less smelly soon. ^.^

Oh god, I literally had the exact same problem with the exact same pony! My Taffy reeked of cigarette smoke, and I kinda just left her off by herself and eventually the smell just faded away... It took over a year though.
