Hog Dog

Every time that we take Mabel to the farm, she seems to have some sort of wild adventure.  This time (last weekend) was no exception.  She went for a swim in a hog manure pit!  

We don't know for sure, but we think she fell in.  Guesses are based on the fact that she does not like to swim, it was dark outside and she has never done this before.

She stunk to high heaven. 

We gave her a bath.  The next morning, we took her to Grand Island and the people at the vet clinic gave her three more regular baths plus the skunk deodorizing treatment.  She still stunk, although things were much improved.  The smell seems to be slowly wearing off.  Thank goodness!  

Poor Mabel.
