Peanut butter. It works, I've just used it. I would suggest not using chunky, for obvious reasons. Also, drive fast when you see a pack of dogs.

I know this wont help your current situation, but try Zaino next time. I had never used it before using it on my MINI and I'm hooked now

Use an old toothbrush to get it off, just be careful near the paint so that you don't scratch it.
