Skunk got the dog

[KyleW]

Found out that my dog got sprayed by a skunk.

Anybody have any good ways to get rid of the smell? Is there a home remedy that works or should we just go get a dog shampoo made for this purpose?

Thanks in advance

Just went through this.

Baking soda
Hydrogen peroxide
Dawn dish soap

Mix them into a runny paste and scrub dog leave on for 5 mins. Wash and repeat. Then wash is a shampoo.

The dog will still have an odor for 2 weeks but it will be tolerable.

Tomato sauce works pretty good

1 Qt 3% peroxide

Soak him and let it sit for 5-10 minutes and then wash him with dish soap.

This right here. Larger the dog, the more of each ingredient you'll need.

Shave him up first and then the bath with the mentioned ingredients.

No shaving required. My lacy has been into a skunk 5-6 times and with that bath he can sleep inside once he is dry

To add to this, the water will basically reactivate the skunk smell for a while. My lab was sprayed a few years ago and after a couple weeks we got the smell to go away but on the days we would train in the pond the water seemed to do something to where you could smell a hint of that skunk still until she dried.

This. My Doberman loves skunks and this is the only way she's coming back in the house after she plays with one. Completely neutralizes the smell in most cases

A bath in white vinegar. Dilute it 50% with warm water. My two hell raisers get sprayed monthly it seems, and this is what I’ve found works best. You’d think they’d learn to leave skunks alone, but not yet

Man, I’d be taking those suckers to the pound! [emoji12]

The formulas above work well. You will still smell it on their breath and when they get wet for a week or so.

Fortunately the 2 I have now learned from their first run ins with Pepè Le Pue.

my dogs got sprayed good a few months ago. it goes away pretty fast on its own. they pent the first night out in the barn and were back in the house the second night. I wouldn't worry about it unless you are fixin to put them in the car of the wife says thay gotta sleep inside.

Natures Miracle is what we use 5 or 6 times a year.
