Tomato juice bath or keep them outside and let them wear it off.

Here's what I used on my mastiff that got sprayed at 4:00am and then busted down the front door to get back inside

The most popular home remedy for de-skunking your dog is as follows:

1 quart 3 percent hydrogen peroxide

¼ cup baking soda

1 teaspoon dish detergent (I prefer Dawn)

Wet your smelly boy down and rub the mixture into his coat. Leave it on for 10 minutes and then rinse thoroughly. If you have any of this solution left, discard it immediately because it becomes combustible when stored in a closed container.


WORKED GREAT!!

Nah, never heated it up. That weiner might not like it at first but he'll get used to it.

I will try both, one of'em should work. He can stand alot for a weiner dog. Ppl we got him from said his parents were used to hunt badgers and they were pretty dang good at it....I believed them because we hunt hogs with dogs and this little weiner dog is the first to find them in the wind.

It's the citric acid in the juice, temp shouldn't matter. Have heard of using peroxide but haven't had the opportunity to try it, thankfully.

Thanks guys i think I have it pretty much wore off of them, I poured some 100% pure orange juice into the mix that had expired in my fridge they smell pretty good now but I can still smell it mildly but not like it was. Something worked now they smell like dawn and orange juice.

I got sprayed quite a few times as a kid. You'd be surprised how fast you get used to it. Just don't fight it!
