I was going to relate a story about a dead fish but I got nuthin’......
I feel your pain.Belle had a good old shimmy in a rotting seal once...
Oh yuck, soooo much worse with longer coats!Nelly rolled in a decomposing sheep ,and as she has long hair it got ................. Oh Lord, making me feel sick thinking about it !
I am hanging my head in shame. Juno has reached the grand age of 4 (really don't know where the time has gone) and has never rolled in anything - decaying or otherwise![]()
Harley is 5 in just over a month and has never rolled in anything. She turns her nose up at anything dead and walks off ??
You don't know how lucky you are having non-rolling Labradors! I think the girls are worse than the boys for it.Sam never once rolled in anything either , Prefect Material , whereas Nelly would be the one made to sit in the corner with her face to the wall ! xx
I love that painting, I wish I had a talent like thatSo far, so good with Wispa and Tuppence. However, our first lab, Penny, was a champion roller and once rolled in very smelly, very runny fox poo when I was walking with a friend and her dogs, one of which was Penny's sister and never rolled in anything! Penny was far too smelly to walk any further, never mind put back in the car, so we found a cattle trough in a nearby field and bathed her in it. As we didn't exactly carry shampoo with us, she still smelt a bit, so the walk was a bit longer than we had intended and the car windows were open all the way home!
My friend's husband painted this picture of a typical walk, showing Penny rolling, her sister Dinah trying to 'tell on her' and my friend and I walking on oblivious with our other two dogs!
