My dog rolled in....

[Lady's Human]

Shortly after we moved out to New York, Lady got loose.

She had a great romp up through the pastures across the street from our house, and when she returned she was more brown than black and white. She had found a nice, fresh cowpie and rolled in it. She was NOT happy with the ensuing bath from the hose.

Its really nice to see when the dog rolled in grass.

Thank you

Actually my dogs do not roll in anything stinky. Taggart does the scoot around on his back thing, but never in something stinky. The only times I've dealt with stink on my dogs is when they met a skunk (twice for Zoee and once for Taggart).

Now my moms dogs............they do this ALL the time. And my parents live out in the country so there is plenty of stinky stuff to find. That's pretty much how they get regular baths is by rolling in stank.

Cindy - I'm totally jealous that your two don't roll in stinky things! We have very bold skunks in our area so I'm just waiting for Jasper to discover them...luckily he's always on leash outside so maybe I can stop him...

Hopefully for the sake of your nose Jasper doesn't take a page out of Lady's book.

Lady HATED skunks.

She got into one when she was a young dog, and had several baths (which she loathed) over the next 2 days to get rid of the sccent. After that, any time she saw a skunk she charged them, with the expected results. The one exception was one night when I went oustide and smelled a skunk, but never did find out where the smell was coming from until the next spring. I was weedwhacking next to the deck and saw a little paw sticking up out of the dirt. Evidently the night I smelled the skunk Lady had actually killed and buried it.

LH, your story makes me glad that we don't have a backyard, as I'm certain Jasper would have a go at any skunk that crossed by.

What's worse than skunk stink? DEAD skunk and skunk stink! *shudder*

And worse than that - the smell of skunk spray burning off one's exhaust system while you are driving to get "deskunking" shampoo!
