Skunk! Ok, now we know.

My homie is trying to improve in many areas including: "not failing at life," "work," "pack leadership," and "de-skunking."

So... she's going to put together an emergency skunking kit:
  • big plastic bucket
  • sponge
  • eyewash
  • the eye ointment my vet gave me this weekend since I got skunkjuice from Hell's swimming pool in my precious dark eyes
  • 2 (just in case) quarts of hydrogen peroxide
  • Dawn dish soap
  • baking soda
  • rubber gloves
  • stake and rope (apparently skunky dogs are not welcome inside until bathed outside 3 times in hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and dish soap! How cruel!)
  • facemask (What's that all about? Huh.)
  • an old towel
Smell update: I'm fresh and clean! Except for my nose and face. They still smell faintly like vermin sauce.

Well, it's 9:04pm, and I'm about to head out for today's last outing. Let's hope I don't get skunked! :)

Watch out! You will be skunky whenever you get wet for a while. Hopefully your homie will never need that skunk be gone kit.

Being skunked is no fun - our Mom and Java didn't get a direct hit, but they walked through the spray - Java didn't smell so bad because Dad bathed him in tomato juice, but Mom smelled of skunk for at least 6 weeks!! YUCK!! It's a bad thing when your Mom comes out of a hot shower smelling like a fresh skunk.

XOXO

Yeah, the vet told me my head would be stinky for a while and that I would be stinky when wet. Isn't my homie lucky that it's raining this week!! LOL :D
