I Hate Skunks!

[BloominOrchid]

Man oh man do I hate those smelley buggers!
So let my Prada Dog out for pee before bet and I hear her making a fuss out at the coop...

Figured she was chasing off a coon again...

Nope a SKUNK! And of course it sprayed her in the face.

Shes in a panic, getting slobber and stink all over.

So she got the good old Paroxide & Baking soda bath...She smells better, but the house

I HATE THE SKUNK!!

I've got them here too. It's so bad that when they pass by my window at night I wake up for the smell is wretched.

I did find Fels Naptha laundry soap did wonders on the smell, better than the other remedies that I tried (vinegar, baking soda, dawn dishwashing liquid). Not sure I'd put it on a dog, but I put it on my own body and it worked great in the laundry.

Coming from a family that has caught more than a "few" animals over the last couple of centuries or so that was the answer I was expecting, however one never knows unless one asks.

"essence" - now, that's an interesting name for it....
