The Skunk

Well, I’ve seen a skunk twice.  Matty has found the skunk once.

Matty wanted to eat the skunk, but thankfully she just barked at it.  Even better, the skunk never turned around to give her a whiff of what’s up with the little black and white critter.

It’s not the easiest of things to do…get a picture of a skunk, keep dog from skunk, stay away from skunk… but there you have it.  You can see his little black tail.  I had to walk by about 6 or 7ft from the skunk as it was on the side of the trail and the canal was on the other side.   Thank you Mr (or Mrs) skunk for not skunking me or my dog!

    my dogs would have been all over it and then sprayed for their trouble.

    Excellent. It took me 6 months to train that skunk. Good to see my work paid off!
