We used that. It worked well on doggie (along with "Skunk Off").
Doggie smells fine.
We used all the same stuff on the collar and it still stinks really nasty bad.

I want to know the outcome of this. Have this issue all the time with deer dogs tracking collars.

 

I did the peroxide soak and tomato juice soak to no avail. I bought a new collar for $11 from Tri-tronics.

 

Same thing happened to two of my dogs on the same day (diff skunks) guiding. My collars still smelled a year later.

 

Does anybody know if soaking the collar in bleach would hurt the collar ?

DOC,

Here is a product that will work for sure.

Natures Miricle Skunk Odor Remover.

Ditto new collar. Less money than the grocery/pharmacy trip.

 

Throw the strap out. The PVC has trapped the oils and will stink for all eternity. Your best bet is to order another collar strap. The polycarbonate housing for the collar SHOULD be impervious to the skunk musk. What is there will go away over time.

 

I don't know if this works for skunk BUT it works for nasty coolers (dead shrimp/fish left in coolers)...soak in alittle water and alot of Downey fabric softener...

Let us know if it works for skunk...lol

 

Not so quick on the throw away. I had a similar problem a number of years ago. I buried the ecollar strap in some kitty litter and it took the smell away. I don't recall how long I kept it buried but I think a week.

 

How did you get the cat pee smell out when you took it out of the litter box?

 

I've had success in some cases by washing with Fels-naptha soap then tomato juice and repeated this cycle several times. Just be sure to rinse off the soap well with clean water before putting collar on dog as it can be irritating to skin if kept on for prolonged period of time.

 

Follow-up

A 12 hour soak in bleach/water worked perfectly.
100% no stink on the collar now.

Thanks to all who replied and PM'd.
