Shortly have to take my friends Newfie to groomers, now she is a lovely dog - to look at but she whuffs to high heaven :x (think its something to do with the heavy coat - wee ending up seeping into it), anyway...any ideas how do I get the smell out the car once I drop her off? It does linger once she's gone, even if I chuck the sheet she's been sitting on. Appreciate any advice :thumbsup:

Put plastic under the sheet so the smell doesn't get through. :x Febreeze is good and leave the windows open for a while (w00t) :lol:

and a couple of new magic trees :thumbsup: hand one on the heating vent and blast it out for a minute the scent will be that strong your eyes will water but at least you'll forget about the doggy smell :lol:

We use a cracking product from Christies grooming supplies.

It's their own brand animal cologne (baby powder scented) they do other scents too but I find this one the best.

We use it on our poodles whenever they are between baths,especially at this time of the year as everything stinks :x whenever they get wet,as well as being able to use it on the dogs it can be used as a fabric and air freshener,so use it in the car and sofa,dog beds,mats etc.

It really works :thumbsup:

Not much use to you at the moment as you have to get the dog shortly but maybe good for the future journeys?? :- " I know they do have a mail order catalogue :thumbsup:

P.s I have tried everything :angry: and nothing worked until this and this smells lovely too :wub: very liveable with mind you most things smell better than wet dog :x

Can of Neutradol best i could do in a hurry-close to Ferbreeze! Freezin' today but braced myself to have the windows open

Will have a look at that site for animal cologne :thumbsup:might solve a Christmas present dilemma or two sounds wonderful stuff...

NB. I dropped off smelly dog (and got the abandoned pleading eyes on the way out :unsure: ), my friend gets the (ooooh, get me out of here, I'm sooooooo pleased you've come to rescue me treatment on collection) and a non-smelly car (w00t) .

Pleased i dont have to visit those grooming places myself with my own - the prices (w00t) !!! Crivvens I could get the whole family's hair cut and blow dried with change for a takeway on the road back for what they charge for one dog! Mind you if they all smell like the one I dropped off they deserve the money And did get a wee smile in the process, to get an idea of time for my friend to collect her I asked how long till the dog would be ready, the receptionist pondered this for some time-even pausing to shift her gum from one side to the other, several times...eventually declaring "I dunno...a Newfoundland's a big dog"!!! Em, talent for stating the obvious a requirement of the job I presume :thumbsup:

PMSL. I meant leave them open when you got home, not freeze to death (w00t) :lol: :thumbsup: I think you deserve a nice present for taking your friends dog. How about a bottle of perfume? :lol:

The smell of some of these car deodorisers sometimes smells worse than the dogs :x and makes me quite nausius at times ......its good to see what other people use.

A drop of Lavender on a little bag hanging near my air vents - is lovely too. :thumbsup:
