Wildlife 1, Kaylee 0

So take a good look at the photo, at the nose end. She never even squealed when it happened, but suddenly she was barreling past me on our afternoon walk, around 1 pm, and when she finally stopped, there they were, about 20 quills in her nose. The vet tech said she must have just nosed the porcupine because they only needed half the dose of anesthetic to get them out. (Still had to pay for the full dose, of course.) So Kaylee was up and running about by the time I picked her back up at 3:30 and took her home. Hope she doesn't try to play with it again.
