Why do dogs roll around in peed on grass???

Yes this is normal for dogs. They do it to claim territory as others have said. My gramdma's dog rolls in bad smells in the grass too and peed on spots.

Well I have been wondering....if rolling pee on grass is a territorial thing, how does it make it territorial?

I understand that peeing where they walk says "I've been here so there" or "I've been here so it my walking area" but what does rolling in peed on grass do for them...How is that territorial?

Can I stop it? It makes my dog rather wiffy
