PETS AND SKUNKS
The summer travel season is upon us and
your pet may be out and about more than normal.
For some reason skunks hold an endless fascination for cats and
dogs. If your pet gets sprayed by a skunk the first thing other
than the smell that you should be concerned about, is the time
of day. If your dog is sprayed during daylight hours you have
cause to be concerned. Skunks generally are only out at night.
If they are out during they day they can be rabid. Notify your
local animal control & call your vet immediately.
If your only concern is the stench the first thing to do is to
determine where the dog was sprayed.
If you don't have any good dishwashing liquid at home, buy
some! You can dilute it and use it to try to wash some of the
oil of your pet. Skunk spray is an oil base that seeps into the
skin of the victim, so washing off as much as possible does
help some. Tomato juice does not work... as far as most can
tell, all it does is make the coat stick together & turn white
pets pink. Something that can help is peroxide but fur color may turn different
color.
Call your groomer and see if they can fit your smelly pet in
for a bath or cleaning. Be forewarned that one bath is not
going to take care of the smell. Every time your dog gets wet
for up to 6 months you will still smell some odor of skunk.
