Small amounts of tar can be removed by letting it harden (freeze with an ice cube?) and then carefully cutting them off. For larger deposits, soak the areas with vegetable oil for 24 hours. To do this, bandage the oil soaked area and then shampoo the oil/tar out of the fur. Do not use gasoline, kerosene, turpentine, or organic solvents since they can harm your pet's skin or make them ill from licking it.
