Pets and wild animals - Happyflowerlady - 01-29-2015 We used to live out in the country, and I always watched to make sure the dogs were in the house before evening came, just in case of coyotes around. However, I still had my dogs either get sprayed by a skunk, or try and catch a porcupine and come home with quills. It is pretty hard to wash out the skunk smell, and the usual recommendation is to use either tomato juice or vinegar. I have only tried the vinegar, and it seems to do the job pretty well. Apparently it is the acid that cuts through the skunk spray and helps it to rinse off. it still takes a while for the leftover smell to wear off, even once you have washed and shampooed out as much as possible. RE: Pets and wild animals - terrismalls - 02-23-2015 Having dogs as pets gives many of these people a reason in life and in any event a lifelong friend. Having a pet shop online can help you recover from dangerous illness and also allow you to be safe and secure from other diseases. |
