Well like Bonny said here is you a Skunk story for sure.. Now I am at work Laughing my Butt off thanks to the two of you..

You asked for it Richard,

Once upon a time our dogs got a skunk cornered in our garage. Mind you it was late fall & getting chilly outdoors. The skunk sparyed all 3 dogs up really good. It must of had a bad aim & also took care of our car too. The dogs had to stay outdoors the next couple of nights & survived. The skunk escaped.

The garage was attached to our house & the oils & smell drifted into our house from the garage. We had to open up windows to breath & air the place out. We wore our winter jackets to keep warm. It was so bad that it burned our eyes for a good day. It just seemed to drift around in the house even with the windows open. We were literally SKUNKED!

Vette, It took the smell a good two days to leave. Glad you think it is funny Ivpets but at the time it wasn't, burning eyes & skunk perfume you can have it. Well, maybe a little funny. I know a good raccoon story too.

Believe it or not, my best friend LOVES the musk smell of a skunk. Everytime she sees a dead skunk in the road, she winds her window down and sticks her head out the window inhaling deeply. She wishes someone would come up with a skunk perfume. But I told her, if she wears it, I highly doubt anyone would to smell her.

Oncc upon a time the small garage door had been left open so the dogs could go in & out & sleep in their dog houses. The dogs had spent the evening indoors & at 10:00 they would be put into the garage for the night. If left out they would keep the whole neighborhood up chasing deer & barking a good part of the night chasing imaginary shadows across the yard.

There was a ladder leaned up to the overhead attic in the garage where we stored our stuff. About 2:00 in the morning when we were all deep in slumber a ruckess broke out in the garage. There was barking & snarling like you would not believe. It woke me & our sons up. Were going like what the heck is going on. Our older son grabbed the shot gun. We got our shoes on & headed out to the garage & opened the small door. On top of the car was this huge masked bandit a raccoon. Our son wanted to shot it but that would mean a big hole in the raccoon plus our bedroom wall. I said no don't shot. There has to be a better way. We got treats for the dogs & called them into the house where they spent the rest of the night. We opened up the garage doors so the raccoon could leave on its' own.

The raccoon left a mess up in the attic of course. After that the ladder was leaned up against the opposite wall & we kept the garage door closed so no more critters would move in on us & wake us up in the middle of the night.

Except the coyote that would come when it was dark & eat out of the dog dish on the porch.
