Eric, I had a male Gordon that was first "introduced" to porcupines on the plains of Montana. He could not be deterred from attacking them, even after having to be sedated twice at the vet because the quills were so deep in his mouth. I believe that your case with Katie is not all that uncommon, and that when dogs develops what can only be called a hatred for porkies, it never leaves them
