Dog meets Skunk - Advice?

[Big Paul]

This is the one that Mythbusters siad worked very well!


Here is the secret recipe that WORKS. Mix the following:

• 1 quart 3 percent hydrogen peroxide
• 1/4 cup baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
• 1 teaspoon liquid soap or dish detergent
• Mix these together and bathe ("shampoo" in or rub down) the spray victim thoroughly.
• Be sure to use this mixture immediately after it is created, as it is unstable.
• Rinse with tap water afterward, and repeat if necessary.
• For spray in the eyes, flush with water as soon as possible.

I just love the graphic!

I wonder if you'll have a blonde dog after that shampoo?

Thanks! I found this one on goggle as well. I am on my way to the store now to pick up some Hydrogen Peroxide. I did read several sites that said tomato juice will only end up smelling like skunk with tomato juice on a wet dog. Seems that one may be a myth.

I never knew that this smell could be so over bearing - this suff just STICKS to you! and really stays in your nose.

Thanks for all the advice - I am off to try what I hope is the solution. I'll let you know how it turn out!
