1. Mix 1 quart peroxide, ¼ cup baking soda, 2 tbsp dishwashing detergent. Mix in bucket (do not store for future use) and sponge on dog cleaning hit area first.  Keep out of eyes, ears, mouth – rinse well - does not bleach fur.  Double recipe for size of dog.  (Joanne)

2. Mix 1 bottle 3% hydrogen peroxide, 1/8^th cup baking soda, ½ tsp of liquid Dishwashing soap.  Easily applied if put in spray bottle.  Put dog in tub, spray liberally, wetting coat thoroughly and working solution into fur. Make sure you get it all over the dog, including pads of paws. Rinse well and the smell will be completely gone. Do not save any unused solution as it is not stable and will not keep for any length of time. These amounts are for a Doberman so you may have to adjust for smaller dog or double recipe for a long coated dog.  (Larralyn)

3. Wet down dog in tub or shower with warm water. Use a very mild dish detergent such as Ivory to cut the skunk oil, let it sit, then add a paste of baking soda all over the coat and rub it in – it will flush out all the skunk oil – let it sit for 1 or 2 minutes then rinse well.  Final rinse – cider or white vinegar and again, massage it through the coat thoroughly cutting more of the skunk oil. – a gentle rinse of warm water.  Sprinkle real vanilla on your hands and rub it through the coat. (Carla)

4. Toothpaste – the real cheap plain white stuff.  Squeeze the whole tube into an empty bottle and fill it with HOT water – shake it up until its all mixed. Put it on the dog mostly on the ‘hit’ area. Leave it on for 10 minutes and rinse well.  May repeat in a few days.  (Debi)  

5. Nature’s Miracle – De Skunk – or Nature’s Stain and odor remover works great for pet laundry.

Hopefully no one will ever have to use any of these, but now you know – tomato juice does not work.
