Surely you’ve been angry more than once when you noticed your dog rolling around in another animal’s feces? Disgusting, isn’t it? Or maybe the remains of another dead animal are like the most expensive perfume for your dog? Why do our four-legged friends do this?
Rolling in feces or dead animals coats dogs with the scent of their prey, helping them sneak up on what they are hunting.This is a natural hunting instinct and acts as natural camouflage.In the past, dogs would take home a trace of their experiences on their shoulder so the rest of the pack could read their hunting history through scent.
This behaviour is instinctive and is almost impossible to stop so next time just call your dog or use the leave it command instead of being nervous
