| I have seen dogs do this... Mine don't rub their face, but will roll on their back to get the scent. It has to be something stinky that they are enjoying

| Jeanie - You are so well-read and knowledgeable about dogs. I love it!! That completely makes sense to me and really looks like what my dogs are doing. Thank you for that explanation Quote:

| For about a week Guinness would come back in the house from potty breaks smelling like.. Heck I can not even put a label or describe the smell but it would make you gag!!!! We finally had to walk him to see where he got this mystery smell from and it just looked like the rest of the yard and could not figure out what in the heck the smell was we finally just blocked him off from that area to keep from having to wash him and brush his teeth after every single potty trip.

| I have seen many animals do this...cats and dogs...over the years. I have not always been able to detect anything on 'the spot' but other times whatever they wallowed in smelled horrible but was indistinguishable as to what it started out as...some had to have baths to be indoors with me. I've seen many explanations given. I have recently seen Brody do this, but since I was right there with him, I stopped him and could not find anything there, or detect a scent on either him or the ground. I moved both Yorkies away from that spot, although Mia did not get to rub the spot...she was very interested in whatever was/had been there...and I am certain they 'discussed' the even in greater detail later. I did have one female kitty 'pay respects' to a fallen fellow kitty in a similar fashion, however, by wallowing on her fresh grave. On that occasion, she seemed to completely understand what had happened, and her actions, though hard to adequately describe, seemed very respectful of our fallen, well-loved kitty.
