Olfactory Ode

Odiferous, a sad and sordid tale, for naught remains but that which does assail. The rascal takes one final, pungent swipe: grizzled remains along the center stripe.

Never let a dog get entangled with a skunk if you can help it. Took us weeks to get rid of the odor!

My big lab and I ran into a skunk once. He chased it and somehow rolled right over it without it cutting loose. I got him back on a leash and we escaped!
