… and well, our dogs chased it. And got sprayed. So we smell it, they get inside and run around our house. Quick spray of cologne and breath mints later, I’m out the door and off to the pet supply store we go. Got some stuff to help the smell. It did, mostly.
God, it smells like bitter, acidy metal. Like blood, but bitter.
Anyone have any experiences with skunks?
Personally, I’ve seen like ten while walking around but never been sprayed.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a skunk in real life… Do they really have the stripe and everything? Wow, I don’t think I’ve even seen one outside a cartoon. O_o Oh wait, no. Tom Green Show.
Yeah, over the summer my friend and I were watching Casablanca in my family room, and about halfway through we noticed this pungent garlic smell. We finished watching the movie, but after leaving and coming back about half an hour later, we were amazed that we could stand it for that long. The house stank for days afterwards.
I’ve only seen a skunk maybe once, and that was years ago when my entire family went camping. My aunts turned up the radio to scare it away. That worked: no harm, no foul.
Here, the only time you need to be on the alert for skunks is summer. I learned that when my dog got sprayed TWICE. She would have been sprayed a third time, but I managed to see the skunk in the distance so I brought her back inside.
