Dogzilla Sprayed by Skunk Last Night

Personally, I'd rather shoot the fkn skunk. This is the perfect time of year. No one will know the difference between the .22 and all the firecrackers going off. Even though she's pretty much fine now (I smell worse after after doing a differential fluid change lol!), I do not want to go through what you all have gone through.

A boy I knew back in our teenage years was a "great outdoorsman". He came home one night and there was a skunk in his backyard so he grabbed this .22 and shot. Well, it wasn't a clean kill and the back of the skunk was pointed to at an open basement window. No, his father didn't kill him, but close. I don't think I would shoot the skunk. Just let it pass by.

Also be careful as a skunk can also be a carrier of rabies. I know someone who was sprayed by a rabid skunk and had to take the rabies treatment. He was told that the spray could carry the virus. Rabies is an issue in NC.
