A wise man who worked at the elevator feed store told me the story of staking out a skunk sprayed dog to a post in the corner of a field while he tried to figure out how to get rid of the smell. When he returned a bit later he couldn't smell the skunk any more, so figuring the dog had broken loose he went to look. He said he found the dog laying in the corner on an old pile of wood ash. The dog had rolled in it and the smell was gone. I tried this trick by rubbing ashes on my skunk sprayed dog and the smell was gone immediately. Needless to say she require use of the trick more than once as she thought skunks were kittens and that they needed her to take care of them.
