rocketman Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 We tried tomato juice on her nose - no avail. That's the first thing I thought too, but turns out it doesn't work. See here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share Posted January 22, 2014 I once had a family of 5 living under my back step. I once had a family of 5 living in an old abandoned van out by the shed. Hey... the extra money from the rent they were payin' was nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender 4 Life Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 a girl I was in High School with used to bring her de-clawed, de-scented skunk to school occasionally.....nobody minded as it was quite a novelty. I spent quite a bit of time w/it in my lap, on my desk, and over my shoulder as we sat next to each other in several classes. remarkably like a house-cat.....tame, friendly, even purred. the skunk was fun too..... j/k !

Tman Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 That's the first thing I thought too, but turns out it doesn't work. See here. You're right. I ended up with skunk scented tomato juice on my shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinner 13 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 white distilled vinegar, Take the stink outta ANYTHING / EVERYTHING, AND will clear clogged drains. Once I was able to recover all my personal items that survived the flooding when I was in NOLA in '05, I washed all my clothing in WDV. all other items got a good wipe down as well, No more stinky, No more mold.

Tman Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 white distilled vinegar, Take the stink outta ANYTHING / EVERYTHING, AND will clear clogged drains. You are undoubtedly correct about the probability that white distilled vinegar will remove all smells but if I would have attempted it on her nose after skunk then tomato juice, I would have had to administer doggie CPR I'm afraid. I love her but probably wouldn't do mouth to mouth, skunk smell or no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aster1 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I think I'd heard about the Oxidizers like H2O2 (peroxide) but not the soda. I'll keep that in mind. Much cheaper than Tomato juice (even if it would work that is). Thanks for the tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, she's a rescue boxer and something else mix. We were in the house and all of a sudden we saw her in the backyard snorting, sneezing, and running around in a frenzy. Then we smelled what it was and looked at each other and said "Skunk!" Her poor face wreaked. We figure she saw the skunk then moved in for an investigation. She has demo'ed a capacity to learn things though, bet it never happens again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 Wow, a skunk got your dog. Terrible. I hope my dog Duke stears clear of 'em in my yard. He's just about a year old and currious like a pup still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just about a year old and currious like a pup still. Brynn (after Brindle coloring) is a year and a half. I believe she now has a healthy respect. Yours is the perfect age to learn I'm afraid. I don't know what kind of dog Duke is but any dog named Duke or Luke congers up a specific look for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Natural Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 When I was in college, 35+ years ago, I hit a skunk in my old '68 Gran Prix. My left front stunk FOREVER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
