  1. I'm pretty sure the only way to remove super glue is with very harsh chemicals -- NOT an option in your case. You'll just have to wait until it comes off on its own.
  2. You need to go to the vet, don't self fix, you may harm the dog. Avoid using any chemicals because you're not sure how the dog will react to it.
  3. You can try some mild soap with warm water; if it is really bad I would take the dog into the vet for them to help. Otherwise, it could just come off with time. For some reason dogs hair really does a good job of getting "rid" of things!
  4. you can try nail varnish remover if it's not near her eyes, however, i would leave it if it is not bothering her, it will come off eventually
  5. Water eventually breaks down super glue (cyanoacrylate) adhesives, so if the area is moist, just give it a few days and it should either fall off, or will come off easily. FWIW, my dog had an old volleyball for a while, but wouldn't really play with it until it leaked enough air that it became flat enough so he could get a good grip on it with his teeth. Then he LOVED playing with it.
