Eleven Things I Learned From A Skunk | Itchmo: "Skunks are masters of misdirection. The dog who first notices the skunk in the yard and who is therefore chasing around as if she’s been set free inside a nuclear accelerator is not actually the dog that is in the danger of being “skunked.” The second, slower, lumbering dog, big and black and just barely aware that there is reason for such a racket, surprises the cornered skunk where it has taken refuge beneath the minivan. While I expend my energy and attention calling and cajoling the first dog, “Sadie… knock it off… get back in here…” I do not notice that the second dog has returned to the house in a panic, already past me and visiting every room with her odor and attempting to remove said odor by rubbing against every surface available. Carpet. Bed. Blanket. Stair. Door. Spouse."
