Guest guest Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 A skunk sprayed one of our dogs early yesterday morning. It was a looooong day of dog washing and house washing (dog ran into to the house after getting sprayed). "Lady" hopefully has learned to stay away from skunks! This happened right on our back porch at 3:30 a.m. Lady woke me when she needed to go potty and I let her out the door. Then I heard the commotion and the day began at that moment! lol It was a long, long day. Add to that the cold temps all day. Lady didn't appreciate being outside while doused with tomato juice. After the tomato juice bath Lady was bathed with the solution below. The high here yesterday was 27. By the way the best solution for eliminating odor is a quart of hydrogen peroxide, a cup of baking soda and a teaspoon of dish soap. It actually takes the odor out! It's way better than a masking agent like Febreeze. We used it to bathe Lady but it also works in a spray bottle just like Febreeze.We all slept soundly last night:)hugs SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 Oh how I wish I were there. I love skunk and wish they could bottle it. Only had one actual spraying on our old male cat. Getting in the bathtub and washing him was h*ll with his yowls and nails. I always kept a 'skunk shampoo' on hand after that .. hugs, Cait A skunk sprayed one of our dogs early yesterday morning.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 The smell of a dead skunk on the road is so different from the smell of the spray on our dog. I wonder why it was different? Oh well... one of those little mysteries:) SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.
