[QUOTE="Lannie, post: 1769488, member: 8202"] Thanks for the ideas! I looked up Tri-Solfen, and only found ONE site, in Australia, that mentions it, so it's probably local to Oz. I do have one more set of sedative injections, but I'll see if I can't get some kind of lidocaine type thing I can use for any future episodes. I had a horrid thought yesterday - that even if we DO find and let the air out of (LOL!) the porcupine, if the stupid dog (I'm speaking of Conan the Teenage Boy here) tries to pick it up, [I]which he will[/I], he's going to get quills all inside his mouth. So if we manage to off the prickly guy, I think we need to toss him in the back of the pickup and give him a burial somewhere far, far away from here. Like, miles away. I thought we might get lucky last night, in fact. The dogs went off all at once, between the house and the shop, and hubs ran (figuratively speaking, LOL!) outside with a flashlight and a gun, but by then the dogs were all the way on the other side of the property, so they must have heard the coyotes. I was hoping they were barking at the porcupine and that we could end the problem right there, but it was not to be. We'll just keep trying. [/QUOTE]
