I have lots of squirrels, quail, and rabbits, and have the occasional rock chuck and badger (thankfully only once). Saw a dead skunk on the side of the road just down the road from our subdivision. Just hope we never get them in the subdivision. I can imagine the nightmare of having two GSDs sprayed by a skunk.

Oh, and getting woken up at 2am by a great horned owl has lost its coolness.

Well if we expand beyond just my backyard (which is probably about .02% of yours) then we have skunks, racoons, ducks, herons, owls, deer, coyotes, foxes, turkeys, possums, chipmunks, geese (so so many geese), vultures, falcons, hawks and just about every other bird in central North America within a block of home.
Luckily most stay out of our yard since it is mostly swimming pool.

Yea, we have Lake Lowell and the Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge one mile South of us, and thankfully most critters prefer to stay there. We are just target practice for the clouds of Canada Geese that come and go each year.

I live right dead center of a bunch of large glacial ponds.

My little nugget got spayed on Saturday.

Recovering very well. Absolutely detests wearing the jumper, but I bet she'd hate a cone even more. Energy levels almost back to normal... trying to control her zoomies to stop her from jumping on and off the couch while she heals has proven challenging lol. I took the ramp away assuming it would stop her from going up, but that just emboldened her to jump up so the ramp has gone back.

Had the same issues with the wife.

We had Precious done a couple of weeks ago. Same thing, she was calm for a day or two but even on meds for the week following it didn't slow her down. She's still doing running jumps up and then high flying dives off the back of the couch.
We had hoped that getting her fixed would slow her down. Boy were we wrong.
As for attire nothing the vet had, (and they ordered in several special for Precious) fit.
We found only one pet store that anything near her size but like the one in your photo it had to be undone for her to do her business. The wife found the perfect solution. A One-sie left over from our girls. It was to have been given away but somehow stayed around until our girls had Cabbage Patch Dolls which it ended up on. It fit Precious and allowed her to go outside without having to be undone. Saved $40 or $50 right there!
