Lucy got a late bath last night after noisily discovering a skunk in our back yard. Their meeting was not amicable. Luckily Lucy obeyed immediately when Nick saw the skunk and called her back, so we don't think she was directly sprayed, but she did bring inside with her a pervasive skunky stench. Our house is still mildly unpleasant-smelling this morning, but I can't detect an odor directly on the dog, so I think we had a pretty lucky escape to that adventure.
