I had a canvas saddle cover (made so you could saddle the horse and then strap it on to keep rain out of the seat) that got thrown aside while wet, then stomped and pooped on by cattle. I used a brush and dawn to clean it up and then after it dried naturally I threw it in the dryer to warm it and oiled it up. It lasted many years after that.

IDK if it was the best way but it worked.
