Here's a skunk remedy I know works. I used to be a coon hunter, and one night the hounds ran into a skunk out in the woods. As we were out in the middle on nowhere and had many miles to travel with the dogs in the back seat we were in a quandary as to what to do. One of the old-timers grabbed handsful of marijuana leaves, which grows wild along every fence-row around here, and rubbed the hounds with them. A couple more good rubdowns with the wild pot, and the dogs were acceptable company on the ride home, with only a pleasant resin odor. I realize that everyone doesn't have the abundance of wild marijuana we do here, but if you've got it, it works! -- Steve McIlree -- Pferd & Skipper -- Omaha, Nebraska, USA Have you driven a Fjord, lately?
