terryd 8,581 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Was walking the hedge row last night and we passed a rotten old sheep been there some time. I noticed the dog veering over to it and could see he was thinking roll in the shite time. So I intercepted him just as he got there and told him to sod off. He made a pretend move to walk away then all of a sudden snatched a mouth full of rotten fur threw it as far as he could dashed over to it and threw him self on for a quick rub before i got to him yet again. The barsteward out foxed me again Made me laugh how he threw it and then dived on it for good old neck rub before i could get to him Quote Link to post Share on other sites

skycat 6,173 Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Dogs should be allowed to express their natural instincts. It's all part of their drive/release of energy. I have resigned myself to buying doggy shampoo and an outside mixer tap attached to the hot water. When I'm rich I'll invest in a doggy shower cubicle in the kennel ..., oh, and one of those super doggy drying machines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
