Skunk! My Yorkie was sprayed by a skunk this morning :( We washed her, but don't know much else to do. Any tips? |
I've heard that washing them in tomato juice works best to get rid of the odor. |
I have used the tomato juice,,on a cat,,NOT FUN! But I have seen things for sale at the vet,, might try there. How stinky is she?? :( |
OH my, tomato juice works, I think PetCo & Petsmart sell shampoo for that too. Good Luck. :aimeeyork |
Yes, I have seen shampoo at petsmart for skunky dogs. Poor baby, I hope she is not traumatized over it :p |
I have had this problem more than once unfortunately. I had a German Short Hair who loved to play with the skunks. Poor stinky baby. :eek: Yes tomato juice really works. However you have to do it a few times and then wash with shampoo a few more times. The smell will also linger in your home (unfortunately). Good Luck!. |
Use tomoato juice. Our other dog was sprayed by a skunk once and we tired everything, finally somone told us to use that and after 2 or 3 times we got the smell of off him. |
Skunk Our retriver was sprayed the day before we left for vacation and he was to ride in the car with us for hours. I called my vet and he gave me the magic cure. 1/2 cup of good smelling dog shampoo, 1/2 cup of hydrogen peroxcide and 1/2 box of baking soda. it makes like a paste and you rub it all over the dog. let it sit for about 20 minutes and then wash off. be very careful around the eyes. it was like a miracle. the dog rode in the car and we never smelled anything on him. unfortunately i have had to do this a couple of times and it always works. Good luck. Mary Ann |

peeee-yewwww Please let us know what ends up working for you! |
My groomer carries something for that and I think it is called "skunk-off." |
Yea our entire house stinks. Everything in my room smells, like my purse and coat. When i went to work everyone was like " can you smell a skunk?" I think Heidi was really freaked out, she got a huge amount of it in her face :S Soooo my mom bought this skunk-off stuff, but i think it smells like skunk. Anyway i hope it works! |
Poor baby. I'm surprised it didn't make her sick. I did have to laugh when you said everyone at work was asking if they smelled skunk. :D |
We had a skunk that came everynight 2 summers ago. It was so annoying!! We couldn't leave windows open at night or fans on. My Jack got sprayed 3 times that summer before I let my husband dispose of Mr. Stinky. I felt guilty for a long time, but they aren't an animal that you can live trap and I was worried about the safety of my dogs. I used some of the Skunk Off on my Jack, but it really didn't do anything. The tomato juice was the only thing that worked, but for a long time she still smelled like skunk when she got wet. I have never heard of the 1/2 c shampoo, 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide, 1/2 box of baking soda. I wrote that down for future use!! Thanks Mary Ann! |
o god that must have been horrible! This skunk I think has been coming around. Heidi barks at it all the time and she finally got at it this morning.. lol |
