Hey!I was greeted with the wonderful scent of a Skunk at 12:30 am as the pooch wanted to go do her business.Opened the door and wow that is fresh! Across the street here is a Skunk checking out peoples recycling as usual.I Clapped my hands loudly and it ran up the neighours driveway.
Back in the house I crack the door so the pooch can get a wiff before letting her out. I always do this check as her senses are far better than mine but it really wasn't required tonight it was more of a are you sure you want out there?
Our dog is a Nut job Border collie but knows enough to stay away from Skunks. I have multiple stories.
