I finally get a night out with the girls and come home to a dog that has been sprayed by a skunk! The one night my husband is in charge and this is what happens. Now I know why I never go anywhere. lol
Since it happened on his watch I made hubby give the dog a bath. I found a recipe for de-skunkifying a dog online so he gave it a try. Afterward I went out to sniff the poor guy to see if he was allowed back in the house. Nope, still stinky. So mama had to step in and take matters into her own hands. Armed with a bottle of vinegar and some mandarin orange body wash, I set out to prove to my husband why, after seven years of marriage, he should still appreciate his wife. Now our dog smells like a pickle! But hey, a pickle smells better than a skunk, right? I think so too.
About Me
- Mom Of Thomas
- United States
- Thomas is my son who happens to have cerebral palsy. He is, in my opinion, more on the mildly affected side. He can crawl, sit on his knees, and laugh like a madman. He uses a walker to walk when his legs will cooperate. He cannot talk, sit on his bottom without falling over, or do a lot of the basic things most of us take for granted in life. He is, however, the light of my life and my reason for existing. He doesn’t know he has cerebral palsy. He doesn’t know there are things out there others are doing that he cannot. He does know that little brothers were put on this earth as a form of torture, that dum dum suckers are absolutely the best food on the planet, and that laughter is in fact the best medicine.

This comment has nothing to do with skunks, although I did love that you used mandarin body wash!
I just found your blog through Dream Mom, and promptly got caught up on your posts. You have a beautiful happy boy, and I look forward to hearing more about his exploits. I wouldn't be able to avoid looking in the rearview mirror either--that face!
