pesky skunk again

well, that pesky skunk is back again. he was the one that moved into the dog house that sits against my house in the back yard while i was in alaska. as i came out of my garage today there he was 10 feet away with his tail raised and ready to squirt me with his foul smelling green liquid. i made it into the garage and closed the door while leaving him wondering what happened. there will be no more darting outside for awhile anyway.
