well, maybe i shouldn't laugh, but MAXIMUS has done this too many times...and what's worse, is we're never home when he does it...we're at the creek, and can't possibly be from an animal....ewww!....or we're just visiting and it never occurs to us that people don't keep they're own yards clean....one of us always ends up sitting in the back of the truck holding his leash...or you think that's the worst...and him and i are alone, and he CAN'T ride in the back alone...and he ends up in the front seat with me until we get home......you know, there has got to be some kind of explaination for the rollin' in yuck thing...
