Skunk Deodorizer

Claire de Luna's Note:

I have not personally had to try this YET, but understand this works better than tomato juice for neutralizing the skunk solution. Use this first, as it won't work if you have already bathed the dog with something else.

I have a giant breed dog that took skunk spray at ground zero in the face and chest. This recipe WORKS!! Use it like a shampoo-- apply to wet dog, lather well and let sit 5 minutes and then make sure to rinse thoroughly. There was no skunk odour left when we were done.

I have personally used this recipe - double it for dogs up to 40 pounds and triple it for over 55 pounds. If your dog is a retriever or retriever mix you may need more. Sponge it in, get it to the skin and let it sit for a few minutes. What a life saver! I am now keeping the ingredients in my dog box for emergencies!

The peroxide is not good for the dogs skin. I know someone who used this, and the dogs skin actually dried out really bad, and they ended up at the vet for it. It took along time for the coat to come back as well. It also does not take the smell out. Your best bet is to call the vet for instructions.
