Hey Doody!

OMG! The blog account was very entertaining!

We are having a similar problem, except the wildlife is residing in a nearby out building. We have a momma a two little ones! So cute! Yet... they have decided the entire lawn is theirs and our Shepherd is going wild, trying to get to them. Her bark is insanely loud and while otherwise very well-behaved, she is intensely territorial at home. Nobody ever sleep as long as she detects the ongoing "invasion" of her territory.

We are doing our best to keep her from them while we figure out how to best guarantee their permanent departure. We don't want any injuries (for all) and/or any potential illnesses passed on to our precious pet! We'd like them to depart willingly, alive and uninjured!

Wish their momma would take them elsewhere. No muss, no fuss!

We will get it figured out...soon!
Talk radio is a great idea! Yet, since we have no power in the out building -- we'd need to obtain a boombox and batteries.
I was hoping the "preacher's special formula" was readily available at a local farm and garden store! May need to write to him? Lol!

And...you know... you might need something from the preacher for Alffe's home? (If nothing else, an interesting hostess gift?)

I am glad you have been offered some help with your raccoon situation! I hope that is an "easy fix" for you!
I'm anxious to hear the rest of your raccoon story!

Stay cool!
