my husband had our dog out tonight who tangled with some sort of mammal who emitted a very foul musky odor. It does not smell skunky, any idea what else it could have been? now the house stinks too as my husband opened all the windows when he brought the dog in to bathe him.

Probably a muskrat. Or possibly a weasel.
