Our old lab Max found one in February a long time ago, and I had to take him to the dog wash. There's just no way to wash a dog in sub-freezing weather and snow. I deeply sympathize. At 5:30 I was sleeping, and happily so.Marjiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14950085029835332900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336283699663453373.post-6654028789566849072009-10-21T12:44:33.981-04:002009-10-21T12:44:33.981-04:00Oh my goodness.

Java and Mom walked through skunk spray one time - Dad soaked Java in tomato juice and got his smell pretty well under control, but Mom smelled for weeks - especially after a nice hot shower!<br /><br />XOXO<br />Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and Java<br /><br />PS - this is what our Vet recommends:<br /><br />Skunk Smell Remover <br />1 quart 3% Hydrogen Peroxide <br />1/4 cup Baking Soda<br />2 tbsp Dish Detergent. The stuff for washing dishes in the sink, not something for dishwashers.<br />Mix the ingredients in a large bowl, because it will boil up like Vesuvius. We are, after all, making an oxygen generator. Wash the dog with this while it is still foaming, because it is the oxygen which reacts with the thiols in the skunk stink to neutralize the odor. If it sits around, it will loose it's efficiency because the oxygen boils off. Don't try to store it in an airtight container, because it will blow up. The brew also works for clothes, humans and unlucky cats.Rocky Creek Scotties and Rocky Creek Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05358992951185911832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336283699663453373.post-50103120172888736842009-10-21T08:56:36.239-04:002009-10-21T08:56:36.239-04:00Ick.
