I was thinking I wonder if goof off would be safe and looked it up. Here were some ideas from a person whos dog gets sap quite often on its fur:
I have tried WD-40 &OFF mosquito spray. Because they are both oil based. I just sprayed it on the dogs fur then let it soak in a few min. then wipe with a towel. But if you are afraid of damaging the dog's skin. Then try Goo-Gone, I have used this also and I think it works much better. I have a miniature schnauzer and dont want to cut her hair everytime she gets sap in it. So try these things.
END.
This is not my own experience, but maybe something to look into if all else fails :-) I sure hope your fur baby gets sap free soon xoxo |
