Just simply take the rug outside and shake it or hit it against the wall if it’s too large to shake. This a highly effective way to quickly get off all the surface particles off the rug. Don’t worry though, the hair won’t fall out, our hides are incredibly durable!

VACUUM CLEANING
The easiest and best way to perform routine cleaning maintenance on your cowhide rug is to simply vacuum your cowhide to remove any surface dust and dirt. Quality cowhides are strong enough to endure any vacuum cleaner.

STEAM CLEANING
Every rug benefits from a deep cleaning occasionally and steam cleaning is a highly effective method. So give your rug the occasional deep clean to make it look as fresh and new as the day you bought it. Push your steam cleaner in the direction of the hair to make sure not to get the fibers too saturated. Quality rugs can easily endure steam cleaning without losing any of the fur. Simply allow the rug to air dry after.
Also, on a side note: you should always make sure to vacuum the rug first for the most effective deep clean.

Cleaning and caring for your cowhide rugs is surprisingly easy. Especially compared to other rugs. They are very resilient and resist staining due to them being a natural animal product. These simple and common-sense cleaning methods will keep your cowhide rug looking as clean and fresh as the day it arrived in your home!
