Hey, Hive Mind!
How do you get bike grease out of dog hair? Assuming - hypothetically, of course - that rubbing alcohol and a natural yummy soap have already been tried.

Ashley beat me to it: I was going to suggest Goo Gone, too!
Have you tried Dawn dish soap?
Yes I would try dish soap if you haven't. If that fails you can get this stuff.

Miss you lots. :)

Poor puppy!
Is bike grease one of those things that you can remove with mayonnaise? You might want to try that out on a test swatch before coating Barley with mayo, because I may have no idea what I'm talking about!!
I mailed your Funky Scarf today! I forgot to label it for washing, so I'll just tell you here. It's cotton/rayon and bamboo, so it's hand wash cold, lay flat to dry.
Hope you like it!!

What about Simple Green? That stuff's intended for garage use, and it's fairly benign. I use lighter fluid for all things sticky, but not sure that'd be the thing for greasy.... Good luck! Well, you've probably solved it by now anyway.
I'd consider eucalyptus oil, a very small amount.
The dog's gonna hate it's guts, of course.
But he'll have the clearest sinuses for miles.
