Kitsune had another showdown with the buck this morning, and this time I saw it myself. He was at the edge of a road, and she was a little bit downhill, barking like mad. The buck was all muscle and stern glares, and Kitsune was going, like, WTF??? From below, he looked like a moose confronting a chihuahua. Totally studly. He kicked at her, backed her down the hill, and chased her off before bounding off into the woods. Kitsune ran after him briefly but you could see she wasn't really going to follow through with anything.

Yay wildlife! I hope she doesn't have to learn the skunk lesson the hard way, too.

HA HA HA! Poor pup, she's used to being the biggest animal around. Now there's this huge, pointy, looming thing that won't play 'run away and I chase you' with her. I don't blame her for being nonplussed :D

Aah, the skunk lesson. Good luck. About once a year some foolish animal in our neighborhood will be taught the skunk lesson. Always a pleasure to come home to. LOL

Have the tomato juiceingredients to remove the stink on hand, just in case.

I don't know if you have them around there but here's hoping she never learns the porcupine lesson.

"In the tradition of the stinky pigs, Jamie and Adam volunteered to get skunked in order to test various stink remedies."

That's hot in so many ways I can't count them all. My suggestion would have been "olive oil in the sauna". ;-)

We had one terminally stupid dog (Springer Spanial) who had to learn this lesson at least once a year. He really, truly thought they were fun and lovable creatures he could lick in love. Um. No.

Now that is what I would call a "dysfunctional relationship".

Me, I'd rather get a whiff of their armpits after not letting them bathe for a week or more....

When she does learn the skunk lesson, please get pictures of the aftermath. I'm sure her expression in the bath will be unforgettable.

tomato juice worked for us when Scooter had her encounter with a skunk.

That's tomato juice X3 applications in the shower, going on until 5AM, and it still didn't remove it all.

And, knowing you, Scooter was still 'fully dressed' :)
