Skunky Neighbor

My neighbors a street over are two very large German Shepherds, Wolfie and Timber. Their humans rescued them from dire circumstances and have been teaching them the ways of "living the good doggie life." They each weigh over 100 pounds. Their original owners were NOT nice people. They were abusive. They came to their new home with lots of doggie fears. They are beautiful dogs and have developed socially and made lots of progress. They even go to my favorite vet, Dr. Jordan, because he speaks "German Shepherd" and "Malamute." He can get us furry kids to do just about anything. We love him.

At 5:00 AM this morning, Wolfie and Timber had a little adventure. Going out to potty became more than their humans bargained for. Wolfie was sprayed in the face by a skunk. Wolfie did not take this too kindly and the skunk did not live to tell his story. Timber wanted in on the action and rolled in the smelly stuff. It is rumored, even their humans stunk. Mom sure hopes their skunk relatives don't come knocking at our house!

Woofs and Wags,

Poor skunk! My father had a similar run-in as a boy in the country on his way to school, but the skunk did live. My father told me the teacher immediately gave him the day off!

Oh no!! Before mommy got me, mommy had a collie who got sprayed by a skunk and she doesn't want to go through that again! Now that we live out in the country, mommy's afraid I'll run into a skunk! Hope they got the smell out.

Phew Sitka, that sounds like seriously smelly stuff. But yes, poor little skunk. Anyway, let's hope it has taugth other skunks to keep well away.

Our dog Mugsy has been sprayed by a skunk before. The only thing that would remove the smell was tomato paste. We had to bathe him a few times but eventually the smell went away! Thank God my father told me about the tomato paste! It could have been a much stinkier situation... :)
