Skunks

You say your dog got skunked?

So fido got into it with that skunk under your shed?

P. U. ! Smelly dog go away!

But say you really do love that old hound dog, and you need to
get that smell off him right away.

Here’s a vet approved formula from Chemical and Engineering
News (developed by Paul Krebaum).

The formula is:

1 qt. 3% hydrogen peroxide
¼ cup baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
1 teaspoon liquid soap

The bath should be followed with a tap water rinse.

When heading for bear country never go unarmed, designed by a
grizzly attack survivor, this field proven Magnum Bear Spray from
UDAP Industries can mean the difference between life and
death.Features: Using the most potent EPA-approved formula
available, it is 2.0% Capsaicin and related Capsaicinoids which
are the chemicals that give all hot peppers their fiery nature. It has
a range of over 30 feet with powerful dispersion in a shotgun blast
pattern; delivers the highest amount of active ingredients possible
in the shortest amount of time. It's equipped with a specially
designed holster, so it can be sprayed directly from the hip or
chest if time does not allow for removal.

Now don't just hate those stinky critters and want to get rid of them. Be careful as skunks ARE sometimes carriers of rabies. BUT,
(as in everything in nature), there is a good side to these small creatures as well. The BENEFITS of Skunks are:

With their slow, waddling gait and bushy tail, these gentle mammals are delightful to see from a distance. Also, Skunks are excellent
at rodent and insect control. In addition to mice, rats, and other things, they are also useful as their diet also includes things like black
widow spiders and scorpions. Also, being carrion eaters, they help keep roadways and neighborhoods clean. As you can see,
although you and your pet don't want a confrontation with one, they DO play an important role in keeping nature in balance - the
natural way.
