You roll in deer scat, you end up in the tub. Sorry. But it's the rule. |

3. But what do I do with the Cool Whip and 12V batteries? |
|
I'm not even going to mention the monkfish yet. That's, like, step 13.

5. Don't know the consistency of bunny biscuits |
|
But fresh, wet deer scat will end you up in the tub every time.
Which is why you should learn NOT to roll in it. Or if you do, don't look so insulted.....

27. As long as it's poo, mine would be happy. |
|
Blech! Dogs can be gross creatures.
You know, when we got him he did not resemble a yellow lab in color. He was this brownish streaked stinky boy who got a bath the minute we got him home. He was a rescue and someone had kept him for a few days on a horse farm. He enjoyed the horses...too much.
Our main battle now is bunny poo on a daily basis. Deer only occasionally if we take him out somewhere. Raccoon & geese, he doesn't care.
Blech

28. I often process food recall emails and occasionally they involve |
|
dog food or treats. Everytime I see that I wonder how an animal that will role around in and even eat poo could have an issue with bad food.:shrug:

29. I've thought the same thing. Our previous dog used to love |
|
dead birds. He was also a lab, never had the poop rolling problem with him, but he sure would scarf up a dead bird and swallow it whole.

20. But not everyone chooses to roll in it |

Repeatedly. Until covered head to toe. So you end up in the tub. Again.

22. Well, not unless he indicates "liking" by crying and shaking |
|
and giving us the big sad eye look and ignoring us the rest of the day.
He HATES baths.
Which is why I was surprised when the neighbor came to the door, handed him to me, and said as an aside "oh, and he might have rolled in something in our yard"
Oh really? What gave you that idea? Was it that his shape was distorted by all the stuff clinging to him, or was it the distinctive smell?
So back into the tub - cry all you want, you are NOT rolling around the carpet as an alternative self-cleaning mechanism.

23. That reminds me of the greatest dog story ever - Dogs in Elk |
|
http://www.webtree.ca/tree/keeper/dogs_in_elk.htmAnne V - 01:01 pm PDT - Sep 9, 1999 - Okay - I know how to take meat away from a dog. How do I take a dog away from meat? This is not, unfortunately, a joke.
AmyC - 01:02 pm PDT - Sep 9, 1999 - Um, can you give us a few more specifics here?
Anne V - 01:12 pm PDT - Sep 9, 1999 - They're inside of it. They crawled inside, and now I have a giant incredibly heavy piece of carcass in my yard, with 2 dogs inside of it, and they are NOT getting bored of it and coming out. One of them is snoring. I have company arriving in three hours, and my current plan is to 1. put up a tent over said carcass and 2. hang thousands of fly strips inside it. This has been going on since about 6:40 this morning.
AmyC - 01:19 pm PDT - Sep 9, 1999 - Oh. My. God. What sort of carcass is big enough to hold a couple of dogs inside? Given the situation, I'm afraid you're not going to be create enough of a diversion to get the dogs out of the carrion, unless they like greeting company as much as they like rolling around in dead stuff. Which seems unlikely. Can you turn a hose on the festivities?
Ase Innes-Ker - 01:31 pm PDT - Sep 9, 1999 - N I'm sorry Anne. I know this is a problem (and it would have driven me crazy), but it is also incredibly funny.
Anne V - 01:31 pm PDT - Sep 9, 1999 - Elk. Elk are very big this year, because of the rain and good grazing and so forth. They aren't rolling. They are alternately napping and eating. They each have a ribcage. Other dogs are working on them from the outside. It's all way too primal in my yard right now. We tried the hose trick. At someone elses house, which is where they climbed in and began to refuse to come out. Many hours ago. I think that the hose mostly helps keep them cool and dislodges little moist snacks for them. hose failed. My new hope is that if they all continue to eat at this rate, they will be finished before the houseguests arrive. The very urban houseguests. Oh, ghod - I know it's funny. It's appalling, and funny, and completely entirely representative of life with dogs.
Kristen R. - 01:37 pm PDT - Sep 9, 1999 - . I'm so glad I read this thread, dogless as I am. Dogs in elk. Dogs in elk. Jaysus.
Anne V - 01:41 pm PDT - Sep 9, 1999 - It's like that childrens book out there - dogs in elk, dogs on elk, dogs around elk, dogs outside elk. And there is some elk inside of, as well as on, each dog at this point....

Those are not dogs who were going to be sleeping inside on furniture anytime soon.
That's the advantage to having a weiner dog covered in deer scat (or elk carrion).
You can pick them up with one hand, hold them away from your body, and put them in the washtub without too much trouble, even if they are EXTREMELY bath-averse (like this litte fellow).

I'm crying at my desk trying not to laugh my ass off. What's scary is that I have a golden retriever who I could totally see doing something like that.
