I think gum can be removed after one applies ice to harden it.... or I'd try coconut oil, mayonaise (removes tar), I use Jif Peanut Butter to remove label glue... (just for future reference)  |
I was thinking the same thing - sugarless gum/xylitol/artificial sweetener is extremely dangerous for dogs. Thank goodness it was only a cosmetic issue and not a health issue!
Rio had some gum stuck to her face too when she was a puppy - I was able to scoop the gum out of her mouth but had to cut the gum out of her hair. What's gross is it was gum spit out by someone on the ground at the mall.
