timely, can we trade dogs for a couple of weeks? We have a terrible infestation of cottontails in the backyard, but the dog totally ignores them. I wish he’d do something about the bunnies.

mom60, belach would be my treatment of choice for anything skunky (never thought about using dilute bleach on a dog - hmmmm, sound like a good idea). I used to bleach smelly thiols (compounds similar to the ones released by skunks) when I worked with them in the lab (bleh!). Thank goodness I’m not doing that work anymore and we do not have skunks in my neck of the woods.

My sister had a beautiful Maltese dog with snowy white coat. Despite her innocent looks, that little thing liked rolling in dead things, too! Sis shampooed the heck out of her almost every other day!
