We have used rug doctor several times before without complaint.

Hope everything is ok?

depends on where you live, rug doctors are ok a bit over rated imho
but if your desperate, hire one as for me id buy a something like htis for now and the future https://www.directvacuums.co.uk/vax-ecglv1b1-rapid-power-pro-upright-carpet-upholstery-washer-cleaner-rrp-299-99.html

Rug Doctor machines do a good job.

Their own cleaning fluids are quite expensive - probably their main source of profit.

An alternative cleaning solution is Vax or similar, on the shelf in some supermarkets.

Try a cold salt solution on the blood areas first..lots of salt..soak areas leave and blot..that should remove a lot of the blood.. I have the Vax industrial shampoo machine and use a non sudsy cleaning solution I buy on line from an industrial cleaning company..as good as rug doctor

If you've got a branch of HSS near to you, you can hire a decent Karcher machine for a reasonable price:

(They're also available from National Tool Hire depots but at a much higher price: https://www.nationaltoolhireshops.co.uk/product/carpet-cleaner-hire/ )

How bad is it? What happened?
we have used one of these machines and they are faff and expensive. We have also used a local Safeclean technician, who did a great job.
