Oh shit man, if you do that I want to see the video!

Have you called the vet yet to ask?

I feel sorry for your dog, except that he might get some beer out of it.:P

turpentine on a rag will take it off ... and lighter fluid might also ... either way ... WELL ventilated area to do it in, and rinse really well when done (both will dry the pooch's skin out badly) ... if you're really nice to it ... some lotion afterward would be cool from it's point of view

Looks like peanut butter is the trick.

I've always used butter, rub some butter into them, comb them out, and then give him/her a bath:)



ummm....always? How many times has this happened to your dog? It happened to one of my adirondack chairs too. Maybe I should've used butter.... Left a nasty blemish.

You can also use olive, vegetable, or baby oil. My niece once got her waist length hair FULL of pine sap. My sister called poison control, was referred to a chemist, and spent the next 6 hours working to save all that gorgeous hair...lol. Oh yeah she did use peanut butter also. Good luck!! ;)
