Close call!!

What a relief the dogs didn't get sprayed!
For what it's worth Pepe Le Phew would be arrested in this day and age

Yeah, he was kind of the cartoon Bill Cosby. .

You know what i love about you best King? Your humility!

Pepe was a complete stalker freak.

 

[King Schultz]

Me too!!

One of my many great qualities.

 

[mousefanmichelle]

Sorry about your night King :-( Hope tonight is better!

 

[tcufrog]

Man that royally sucks. You earned that rum and coke. If the knitted shorts didn't do it for you perhaps these would be a better fit.

You'd be ready for Oktoberfest.

 

[Pea-n-Me]

LOL hey some 70s shorts like that have come back in style again!

I hear you on the skunks! We've had dogs sprayed quite a few times - once, two German Shepherds and DH at the same time! Check with your Animal Control officer where you live. Sometimes they'll come out with a trap and remove it from your yard, to put it somewhere else - like in the woods. There can be "families" of them.

 

[Paula Sedley-Burke]

Sorry to hear about your Mom's health. On top of that a Pepe trying to violate your property. Get out buddy you don't pay rent! Boom!

See we have no guns in the UK. Picture a scene from Tom and Jerry with a feeble broom and a critter dancing in the back yard beyond my distance taunting our dog ...

I'm not sure if it would be worse than skunk, but here's my best Stinky Dog story...

My husband and I were up visiting relatives in Northern Ontario, and decided to take our dog out on a long walk (gravel roads, trees, some houses). Along the way, another dog decided to join our party, just tagging along with us. A few kilometres later, when we got to the highway, the dog was showing no signs of going home and we didn't want him to get mowed down by a car, so we cut our walk short, turned around and started back. Our new friend chose that moment to deke into the woods, and when he popped back out of the trees a little ways down the road... there was a cloud of the foulest stench surrounding him you can possibly imagine. I've never smelled anything so nasty. It was making our eyes water a good ten meters away. My husband commented, "He must've just gone and rolled in something very large, very dead, and very rotten."

Our dog, of course, thinks eau-de-dead-animal smells delightful and wants to get up close and personal with this delightful new friend of ours. So we start telling the dog to go away. Just then, the door of a rather nice house opens up and someone calls the dog. We watched (with a certain amount of evil glee) as the dog galloped across their manicured lawn and charged inside. I heard someone scream, just as the door slammed shut.

I'm glad you didn't have to shoot Pepe, and I'm glad your dogs don't stink!

Some things cannot be unseen; now I need a rum and coke, and it's only 9:30am!! Sorry about your crappy night, WillyJ... glad the skunk didn't make it worse!

That's the first skunk I've seen around in 3 years.

We went through a drought 3 summers ago and they came around a lot; I think they were looking for water.

I've had these two dogs 5 years, and they've been sprayed twice- 1st time it was more like they rolled in it rather then getting directly hit and it was nasty but went away in about a week.

The second time, the little one killed a skunk and they both got doused. I washed them, tried tomato juice, bathed them some more- they reeked for like three weeks.


And thanks to everyone for the kind words- the stuff with my mom just is what it is, just gets exhausting at times. I really didn't need two skunked-up dogs on top of it though and I'm very grateful he left.

We're running on Australian time here leebee, you're good to go!

Glad you didn't get skunked Willy. You're a great son to take care of your mom like you do.

Get some Nature's Miracle Skunk Odor Neutralizer.

It works amazingly well. Our younger lab tussled with a skunk a couple of weeks ago. I have this in a spray bottle. I gave her a good coating and left her in her crate to dry. In the morning, one more coat and outside to play and it was about 97% gone at that point. You can also use it on carpets and furniture so it is very handy to have around if you have dogs.

 

[tarheelmjfan]

I have a fresh, fly-less strong rum and coke.

No sign of the skunk; mum and dogs sleeping soundly.


I'm watching Animal Planet and Capuchin monkeys are killing clams by bashing them on tree branches,

Guess there's no Howard Johnsons in Costa Rico either. . .

I hope you have a better day today.

Obviously, I missed a lot on the CB yesterday. Howard Johnson's in Costa Rica, huh?

 

[tcufrog]

I don't have any stinky dog or skunk stories but I have plenty of stinky baby and toddler stories.

Thanks for the tip!!

I'm definitely getting some just in case.

My theory, developed by extensive research consisting of watching a few minutes of an Animal Planted show, drinking, and reading the "Howard Johnsons" thread, is that there was a HoJo in Costa Rica and the monkeys got addicted to clams, but then the HoJo was shut down so they had to get their own clams and crack them open on tree branches.

Sounds plausible. Leave it to Howard Johnson's to create addicts, then bail on them. You just can't trust these big companies.

Ugh. Glad the skunk skedaddled before spraying the dogs. As a kid, one of our dogs was sprayed and it was horrendous. My dad was a big tomato juice drinker so had some on hand. It all went towards our dog, a nice tomato juice bath.
