Our Dog Got Skunked !


(stock photo- we didn't want to take a pic)

We've been de-skunking the dog he tangled with a skunk in the backyard and got sprayed about a half dozen times. P-U, when it's that close it doesn't even smell like the skunk smell it's more like a chemical weapon stench.

Skunk Deodorizer:

1 qt 3% hydrogen peroxide (from drugstore)
1/4 cup baking soda
1 tsp liquid dish soap

Mix all together and scrub your dog. Keep him wet with this concoction for five minutes then spray off with a hose (may cause bleaching of the fur).

The dog was tossing that "polecat" around pretty good and probably would have killed him if we hadn't called him off. As it was he kept running back and trying to get him. Poor dog--- looked liked the proverbial "Whipped Puppy" after getting sprayed and then washed.
