OH GOD!!!!! In my teens, I backpacked alot and have had some run ins with skunks!!! The smell is the one of the most disgusting thing in the world..BLECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've heard that baking soda is really good at absorbing the smell. I would get a few boxes of that. Sprinkle it on and wait a bit and then get some dish detergent and wash the pup out. Work up a real good lather too. Hope this might work for ya.

Ewww. I am so sorry about the skunk smell. I have never smelled it, and I don't want to. Sorry again.
All of the happy hump day pictures that I have seen made me take this picture the night we came back from Alexandria.

Happy hump day everybody!!!!!

Oh speaking of skunks.... we have a family of them living at my work. The mother dug her burrow right outside a large window, and we've spent hours watching her 5 little babies playing -- they are so cute ! NOBODY bothers them
Skunk smell is awful -- even the skunks don't like it. They won't spray in their own burrow unless forced to.

I like alot of what he has to say. Unfortunately, I don't think he's going to make it all the way. I can already see the tides turning to favor Clinton (Dem) and Guiliani (Rep). The state of our government and the approaching presidential election actually makes me sick to my stomack.

You have never tasted my sister's cooking........

Well, I have smelled some pretty rotten things. But, I usually chalked it up to a dead animal roadside. Where I am from, there are a lot of opossums and raccoons. So, there was always some dead smell coming from the woods. Maybe I smelled it without knowing it.
I have missed out on some of the finer things in life.

Agreed. All of the right-wing "democrats" frighten me. Gravel has a good deal of support among younger voters. For example, he's approaching 20% among democrats on Facebook polls (yes, I'm on Facebook

That's because GOD FORBID Americans actually try to make up their own minds without being told what to think and told they better vote for X or Y or they're just "wasting their vote." Gotta keep herding the sheeple in the right direction. Else, voters might have the audacity to elect someone who is looking out for THEM, and not already safely in the pocket of big business and special interests groups (who have invested millions to ensure that we install leaders who are on THEIR team.) And THAT, my friend, is what scares the snot out of them.

Give the dog a tomato juice bath and the skunk smell will go away.
I'm so not into the election yet. I'll wait and see who's still in the running in a few months and go from there. Originally I was a big Guiliani fan but I dunno now.
I made a HUGE mistake at work and just owned up to it once I found it out. I was waiting to be canned but instead I got a "it's ok we just appreciate that you came in at ALL when you were so very sick" so that's a big relief!!!!

I was gonna wait until after vacation to tell them but then I'd be fussing about it and not having a very good week at all.
I'm STARVING. I can't wait till this first week of Weight Watchers is over. The first week is always the killer and then I get used to the portions.

Citrus juices are good at removing skuniness, try orange or lemon (but careful of the eyes). Also try baking soda and vinegar, but definitely in the tub with the fans going or outside in the wading pool. This is the same chemical combo that makes those lovely foaming volcanoes for your school science project. Have some fun and add food coloring! If nothing else, it will make a good photo op. I use vinegar and baking soda to clean all kinds of things around the house.

Well I just talked to a guy here at work whose dogs got skunked last month. He said he found something that worked GREAT to kill the smell immediately.
He took some hydrogen peroxide -- about half of a 16 oz. bottle -- and mixed it with about a gallon of warm water, then added about half a box of baking soda. (He also added a couple squirts of lemon-scented dish detergent to make it smell nice.) He says you need to be ready to use this right away, as it will foam up. So have the dog there ready. He even used it on his carpet where the dogs had rolled -- it didn't damage the color, but he say it cleaned the rug really really good.
Good luck !
