What probably gross discovery has your doodle rolled in?

[Pat and Traveler]

Trav is an urban dog, so doesn't encounter many dead things that might trigger his 'roll in it' instinct.  The few dead birds, rodents or fish we've found haven't appealed to him.  He'll sniff the corpse, then seem to shrug and move on.

Tonight he found something that triggered the instinct.  I gave him a Cod Liver Oil softgel, and after picking it up, dropping it, nosing it around for a while, he started to lie down and roll on it!  Yikes!  This is human grade stuff!  LOL

What has your doodle found worthy of rolling on or in?

[Pat and Traveler]

Ewwwww....that is disgusting!  Bet the windows were open for the ride home, and the Setter was happy as can be.  :)

She was always happy to be rolling in something. I'm sure she was covering up her scent. Then we messed up her plan by shampooing her

[Pat and Traveler]

Awwwww.....poor puppy!  She was just trying to be a nat-u-ral dog!  :)

deer and horse poo.  Deer all the time - last evening I looked out the kitchen window and BOTH dogs had it in their mouths, then would sling it around and roll in it. And I let them lick my human child - GROSS

Just think of it as Choodle doing their part to help strengthen Charlotte's immune system. :)

I had a neighbor come play with Peri (she had put her 17 yo dog down recently and asked to play with Peri - so sweet) - then she asked if she needed to wash her hands before holding Charlotte. I told her that I let them lick her all over anyway so who really cares. I cannot be paranoid!

 

[Pat and Traveler]

Ha!  Like Karen said, Charlotte is going to have a nice, strong immune system.  So sweet that your neighbor would ask if she should wash her hands.  Deer and horse poo seem to be great favorites with our dogs.  So much I didn't know!  lol

Waterlogged rabbit poop.  It took me THREE rounds of shampooing to get the smell out.

[Pat and Traveler]

Oh, Luna!  Mommy says stay away from that rabbit poop--wet or dry!  :)

Follow up to dead possum with some fur samples :-)

[Allyson, Peri & Taquito]

OMD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Pat and Traveler]

Thanks, Linda!  Not only are you a good sport but I think you have a career as a CSI investigator or pathologist!  :)  I'd guess possum from that fur, but there sure isn't much left of the critter!   My daughter came home from school one time sobbing and saying it was all my fault.  I'd told her the animal was an opossum when it was really a possum, and all the kids were teasing her for saying Opossum.  The fact that it really is an Opossum didn't make the slightest bit of difference.
