What is a good safe way to wash pine sap from an animal's fur?

For context, there are two stray dogs at our local city park that we can’t outright adopt, apartment rules say no pets, but we’ve been doing our best within our means to care for them at the park in the meantime.

If it won’t irritate them, hand sanitizer works wonders on pine sap.

Actually, we have a bottle of that in our vehicle, I’ll have to try that the next time I’m out there, probably later today. Thanks!

Update: I gave them both a scritchy brushy bath with hand sanitizer today. Not only removed the sap, but they both let me wash and brush their entire back and sides with hand sanitizer!

They’re two very happy puppers today.
