That dang dawg rolled. Primal regressive instinct? Does it send a message to other dogs that he encounters that he’s a rough tough s.o.b.? Some kind of fecal war paint? I wonder what another animal, crossing the stinking path of mine, would do… Be totally confused and shocked into excited weirdness… or be freaked and shy away. The dog message that I get is total disgust. It assures him a splash swim in the lake and a hose down bath. I keep him close to me on the path but in this case he lagged behind and then I realized why. Makes you want to cuss a blue streak when you see (smell). Kind of puts a whole new spin on the outing :-)I think that the ultimate bad dog belonged to my dear brother. His family pet found the rotting carcass of quite a large road kill and rolled big time at a most inopportune moment. They were miles from remedy and had to share a closed vehicle on the long ride home. I believe that they had the windows down. euuuuwee
