Deskunk your dog
Posted by Tiggiler

My dog was sprayed by a skunk the other night. Of course, it was raining which made trying to figure out what to do and how to do it without getting it all over the house or me that much more difficult. She was brought into the bathroom by my wife while I started looking up online what to do. I was able to find a "recipe" to neutralize the odor. Time is of the essence so I began to mix the concoction and get ready to bathe my dog before the oils began to "set in". It was easy to find online and uses Hydrogen-Peroxide, Baking soda, water and regular dish soap. This stuff works wonders as I was able to get pretty much all the smell out.

Of course I had the skunk smell all through my nose so I could tell for sure if it was still on her, on me or just in my nostrals. I woke the next morning with the smell out of my nose and was able to confirm that the dog didn't really smell other than like the soap we used after we used the mixture. My thought was confirmed the next morning when I brought her to her daycare and told them what happened. They said they weren't able to smell anything on her. I had them give her a professional bathing anyway just to be safe.

Moral of the story is that the mixture works and it is easy to find online.
