deborahjrossI had just fallen asleep when I heard Dave shouting outside, "Oka, come! COME!" (Oka is his German Shepherd Dog, Shutzhund championship lines, 4 1/2 years old, basic obedience titled) And then the smell hit...
Mephitis mephitis
From all the evidence, a skunk had indeed taken up residence in our yard, digging for grubs and moles, eating fallen fruit, hiding under the house. Oka had pounced on it, the skunk was on its back, spraying in all directions. Obedience training held, Oka came running, and got away with only a little lingering smell. However, the incident took place outside our bedroom window, which shall Remain Closed Until Further Notice. Dave's calling the local pest control people to see if they do Skunk Removal and Odor Abatement.
