Me? Just finished washing the dog with hydrogen peroxide/baking soda/soap. Good times at 1am.
It was a year ago on the 21st of August when he took a bite from a copperhead. I'm not letting him out the last 2 weeks of August again...

Skunks and porkys die on sight around my house.......
BTDT enough at this point. Sorry Scott!

In the grand scheme of things that can happen to a dog, this is at the bottom of the list. Just happy I stopped the other big one in time.
He's sleeping in the kennel now (normally a house dog). At least it's not freezing outside.

Porcupines and skunks are the dog problems we have. Thank the Lord no poisonous snakes! The occasional bear wanders through. We have a fix for all of them, and my wife is a veterinarian in the event of quills.

Scott...what exactly did your dog do immediately after being tagged, if you know?
Did it come running to you or did he/she go off into the woods to ride it out alone for a while,like my buddy's hunting beagle?

NH K9 how do you kill the skunks without making nearly as big of a mess as if they sprayed the dog?

Tore down a couple rifles and gave 'em a good cleaning. Started sorting through my food stash in the basement. 'Gotta do a better job of keeping up with this stuff. Some of it expired 5 years ago.

Did it come running to you or did he/she go off into the woods to ride it out alone for a while,like my buddy's hunting beagle? He kept putting he noise towards and pulling away. He went out, I waked back in the house for 30 seconds, when I walked out I could smell it. Walked to the corner of the porch and saw him, facing a bush in the yard and putting his face towards it, then pulling away. The other big dog was in full charge over there, whilst I was yelling at the top of my lungs. She stopped and came back and he followed.

Fighting the urge to go fishing. I really need to mow grass.

BTDT too many times when I ran coon hounds.
When we were kids my brother took a full shot of skunk, up close and personal. He can laugh about it now.

Man I love me some pecan pie.
I am drinking some dark roast coffee, about to take new puppy out.
Then I need to load some 243 rounds and some 223 or 45 Colt also. Tomorrow it will be 480 Ruger.
Got a bud coming over to pick up a basketball net I gave him to give to a kid. May talk him into hitting the club to shoot pistols and rimfires. Got the FEG 61 in 380 ACP I wanna check out........

Me? Just finished washing the dog with hydrogen peroxide/baking soda/soap. Good times at 1am.
I recalled those very same times two days ago when I was on the tractor mowing the lawn. I was just approaching the back deck, near the well-head, when I looked up and saw a large skunk leggin' it for the garden. Thank God the bastid kept goin' into the neighbor's corn field.. If both dogs would have been alive (and outside) I'd be doin' YOUR chore X2.... I hate skunks.

That mixture works pretty good, doesn't it? We always take the "kit" along on bird hunting trips now. Jerry

I took the dog fishing last night. She stays in the boat after dark! Crappy pic, but we had one keeper. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1077.photobucket.com/albums/w471/trhays1/IMG_20160823_002040_zps9jaoqw2r.jpg)
