Thank you Barb!!!
Gee, I wish I had of known that last year in July when my mom, me and Graham went on our "girls week out"! It was about a 5 or so hour car trip and then we had a 2-3 hour (don't remember how long now) fairy boat trip to our final destination. Rarely does Graham roll in gross stuff but, as luck would have it, 20 minutes before we were planning on leaving on the big trip, Graham found something SO offensive and rolled in it without me knowing about it. When he came back to the front door.......oh my gosh....not only did he smell like rotton dead animal, but he had this oily stuff all over his head and neck. I washed him about 10 times before we had to leave and he smelled so bad I could almost not stand it! I tried doggie shampoo, leaving it in his coat for 5 minutes or so...no luck. I then tried dish soap (it's supposed to cut grease) and that did not get the smell or oil out. Then I tried washing him again with doggie shampoo with baking soda mixed in, no luck...I washed him 8 or 9 more times before we had to leave, no luck with anything! It was the roughest long car trip I have ever taken! Then the fairy boat trip was a mess because it was FREEZING and we had to huddle together for warmth...that dog stunk beyond belief! He smelled the whole trip, especially after he swam in the lake. I am planning on another "girls week out" vacation this July, I printed out your instructions in case something like that happens again this time![]()
Again, THANK YOU!
