Topic Dog Boards / General / HELP HELP How do I get rid of fishy smell ugh :(
- By melster122 Date 25.04.07 17:37 UTC
Took Flynn for the most wonderful walk today.  We walked all the way along the river for about 4 hours but unfortunately he decided for the first time ever to roll in something that smelt horribly horribly fishy.:mad:  and then in poo.  I have bathed him and got rid of the poo smell but not the fishy one. 

Please help.  The house smells horrible :mad::mad::mad:

Rubbing in tomato ketchup then washing it off is supposed to do an excellent job at removing pongs.

Great minds think alike JG :)

Do you know I had never heard of that until the other week and it shocked me but what an awesome idea, how do you stop the dog licking it off.
- By Jeangenie [gb] Date 25.04.07 17:49 UTC
You're not leaving it on for very long, and it wouldn't matter if it did. Ketchup's harmless. :)

:cool:Makes me chuckle thinking about it can see Kez trying to lick it before I get it on and he is cream so would come out a fantastic colour pink my favourite :cool: Thankfully Kez has not rolled yet but so many people at my dog class ask and I never know what to say so now I can advise them ketchup:cool:

> how do you stop the dog licking it off


Err, I think that the idea is that you use it like shampoo :D :D :D (Not such a good idea on a white dog, as it turned mine pink - at least she became black and pink :D )

A baby wipe also works to get rid of the smell that can linger after washing the poo off. Was told that today and it worked :)

Must remember that one - ketchup has an even less desirable effect on me than any dodgy dog-sourced smell :D

That's what some in the US use to get rid of the skunk smells

Tomato juice is what we've always used to get rid of pongy odors.
- By mygirl [gb] Date 25.04.07 21:32 UTC
If you've got a light coloured breed you may want to use juice as the colours in ketchup can linger... :)
- By melster122 Date 25.04.07 21:56 UTC
Thanks everyone for your advice.  He is a Blenheim Cavalier so will probably go for the juice.  Wish me luck :cool:
