Dogs love to roll in gross shit.
Apparently, it’s some instinctual behavior. They roll in something smelly and gross to help mask their scent which gives them an advantage when hunting.
My dog prefers to roll in dead things. Dead birds are her favorite. Always a pleasant ride home after that.
Sorry for tagging a disgusting story to your post … but: Friend’s dog, off leash in the big city part found, rolled in and ate poo it found. Turns out it was a homeless man’s who was a drug addict. Dog started to OD. He carried to poo covered do to his car for a run to the vet but the dog vomited all over his back seat. Happy for his dog’s health but stuck cleaning homeless poo dog vomit out of his car. Again, really sorry!
Think about the smell
