Sometime, in my sorted past, at the Indianapolis Truckstops of America, a group of Indiana State Police were running a drug raid on the truckers in truckstop. A busy German Shepard was checking the noisy, diesel-idling trucks parked with his dark blue uniformed handler. The dog alerted on this customized, blood-red "large-car", Cat engine Peterbuilt. The officer opened the sleepercab and pushed his dog inside. After five seconds, the dog was howling and yelping from inside. The cab door was opened to see what's up. Just as the dog went flying out of the sleeper compartment into the officers' arms. The little stinker, inside sprayed the drug sniffing dog and got the officer as well. Consequently, the officer and dog were done for the day. The "Little Stinker" was a native of the Pennsylvania Turnpike on a sabbatical.

when I was a kid, back in the late 50's my one uncle had a pet skunk. can't say he was trained, but he would not spray anyone he knew. had him in a pen in his garage. one night someone broke into the garage, well the skunk knew what to do, and did it well. nothing ended up being stolen. we all could handle him same as you would a cat. the garage aired out in time.

if you do get a skunk trained and to spray on demand, I know of person that could use a skunk spraying.

"I know of person that could use a skunk spraying. "

Just buy some pure "essence" & do it yourself. A hypodermic needle, and viola, you have a sprayer!

Or, build a booby trap that sprays essence.

Getting sprayed directly in the face was a horrible misadventure in my youth. Once is all it took for me to learn to respect El Sorillo!

sordid is the word you're looking for.

I think you can get him trained to spray into a bottle ... use a wide mouth bottle (jar) to give him an easy target ... and be sure and make a video of the spray in a bottle ... I would pay good money to see that video !

The only problem I'd have with that is--- you couldn't do it from 100 yards away.
And eventually, even with a well trained and college educated skunk---you'd still have to get close to the jar.
