I know I've picked up poison ivy from my dog. We have a lot of poison ivy surrounding our property - can one every get rid of it all? It seems as though my dog wants to make a bee line for the infested areas first and then come back for that big hug. I do the same as suggested - at the end of the day or before he comes back in I hose him off. I'd heard that urushiol (sp?) is water-soluble. Hope that helps!
