Last week, Caine was sprayed by a skunk! He is (obviously) a very curious dog and had his face where it shouldn't have been. He must have been close to the skunk because he got hit directly in the left eye. He was foaming and dripping when he came in the back door. His poor eye was beat red!
He was bathed with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, and dish soap. Tomato paste is a myth!
The whole house stunk for about 2 days, and when you kiss his face, you can still smell the skunk. I did another dose of the mix today and that has helped.
Caine has been doing a great job. Summer is over and the weather is now cooler. He has been for walks each day and gets to run at the park. He is still goofy as ever, and still being spoon fed. He eats fast though..it only takes him about 30 seconds to eat!
Thank you for following Caine's story.
Wow, that funny. I was just wondering how he was doing. I'm glad he doing great. I enjoy reading about him.

That funny. Do you have a picture of Caine in the tomatoes bath?

I don't! You couldn't see it too well because he's brown and the tomato was red....but he was very sad about the tomato on his face.
ReplyDeleteThis evening there was an opossum in the yard..but luckily it was playing dead and he just sniffed before he came to the back door. I don't need an opossum getting him too!
Oh, sorry to hear that he was sad about the tomatoes.
