How can I clean a large lambskin rug at home?

its white and says dry clean only
it has no stains just dirty from laying on it every day for 6 months
dry cleaning the rug is going to cost as much as the rug

    Wash with Woolite by hand and after it air dries, use some kind of oil to soften the backing(skin). I use coconit oil, but any oil will do or even saddle soap. Just rub the oil between your palms and wipe it lightly over all the back. Then kinda knead the backing until it seems soft.

    This will keep your rug like new.

    take out on the deck or a cement driveway, soak down with hose, then put woolite on it liberally, and rub with your hands like you are washing a big dog, then rinse with the hose really well till there are no suds. let lay there and drain for a while, then lift up and let drain over a railing for a while, then when most of the running water has quit comming out start shaking it, to help lift the hair, when you wash it do it gently, as wool will felt if you rub too much, thats why they suggest the dry cleaning. it will take a good while to dry all the way,you could point a fan at it. then you might want to spray it with moth repellent when you are done.
