Suzy made a 'friend'

Suzy, our dog, tried to make friends with a skunk....enough said.

She goes out in the evening with hubby to put wood in the stove for the night. last night she wandered behind the woodshed and came back with her tail between her legs. LOL

I had been smelling skunk for a couple days so knew one was out there somewhere...but haven't seen it yet. apparently Suzy knows where it is.

She stunk up the whole house last night....but never moved from her bed. i think she was ashamed that she got caught. if it had been warmer....she would have spent the night outside.

This morning the stink woke me at 5 and i couldn't stand it any longer. so i put her outside to do her duty and got the preparations under way. luckily she likes taking a bath...and likes the shower. we had us a good ole time in the shower this morning and i'm afraid she had to listen to my sermon regarding skunks. she looked ashamed.

The recipe to remove skunk from dogs that works for me is:

1/4 cup baking soda
1 qt. peroxide
1 T dish soap

Wear rubber gloves. wet down your dog and rub the concoction through her coat and leave on for 3 or 4 minutes. then rinse off...wash with doggie shampoo, rinse again....and you are done.

Then go and wash the quilts on the dog couch and fabreeze the whole house.

And give yet another lecture regarding skunks.

Gotta go find that skunk and dispatch it to skunk heaven. see ya

Later
