Jonzjob Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 This could just be very useful [:-))]In a bucket mix:1 quart hydrogen peroxide (the 3 percent hydrogen peroxide variety) ¼ cup baking soda 2 teaspoons dishwashing liquid If you have a large breed dog, you may need to double, triple or even quadruple the mixture.Wear dishwashing or other household gloves if you like during the whole de-skunking process.Don't wet down your pet. Apply the mixture to your pet's dry coat from the collar back toward the tail. Don't pour it near the eyes because the hydrogen peroxide solution can burn them.Lather the mixture into your pet's coat and skin. Rub the solution around for about five minutes or until the skunk smell starts to dissipate.If the front of your pet is as stinky as the back, use a sponge to apply the solution to your pet's chin, cheeks, forehead and ears, being very careful not to go near the eyes. When you rinse the head area, tilt your pet's chin upward so the solution does not run down into the eyes, instead allow the water to run back off his neck.Do a complete rinse once the smell starts to decrease, then repeat the entire process again.You may need to repeat the lather and rinse process up to three times, but it's a very effective method for removing the skunk smell from your pet.Make sure to completely rinse the solution off your pet. Your final rinse should be very thorough.You can't prepare this solution ahead of time and store it – it won't be effective when you need it. It must be made fresh, right before you apply it to your pet. So it pays to make sure you have all the ingredients ahead of time!Good luck … and I hope you never have to use my skunk rinse recipe!

Chancer Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I didnt think there were any skunks in europe? Was the dog distressed? My childhood pet used to live rolling in manure, cow muck, anything disgusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
