My dogs would roll on soil. I don't understand why but I'm happy she doesn't roll on poo, anyway. I have yet to meet a dog who loves rolling on cologne.

And it is so strange that Adele's Rolling in the Deep automatically played on my mind.

Risa loves to scent roll. The weirdest things she's rolled on would probably be dead bees and earthworms. The most disgusting was the dead robin. Even worse because we were at the dog park and I had to put her IN MY CAR to get her home and bathed. Disgusting!! She thought it was the most awesome thing ever!

I knew a dog who loved lemon-scented cleaner. I had to switch products when he was around, or he'd follow me around rubbing all over everything I wiped down. Not only was rubbing in cleaner bad for him, he left thick brown fur stuck to everything I just cleaned!

I know another dog who likes to roll in clean laundry. But not fresh out of the drier - he likes it fresh out of the washing machine. Once it's dry, it's not good anymore.

Fox rolls in stuff seasonally. Since it's winter, she rolls in snow. In the fall, she rolled in warm, sun-dried grass. Spring and summer, she rolls in the thick, fresh grass that grows in shady areas.

Ember likes all the typical nasty stuff, especially prey animal's poop.

Lizzie rolls on dead worms, dead fish, invisible things... She also really likes certain fabric softeners or laundry detergent, even some shampoos and cologne, and she will rub all over people if they smell strongly of those scents.

The most embarrassing thing she rolls on though is the rawhides and other chewies at pet stores. She once knocked down an entire shelf at Petco while I had my back turned!

laugh out loud LOL I am loving these responses!!!

Wilbur is my odd child and scent rolls on just about anything! Dish soap, cardboard, cologne, fruit/veggies, canned food, chapstick (when it's on your lips, lol), lotion, toothpaste tubes and shoes to name a few! Of course he does the regular ole nasty things like other dead animals, bugs and certain types of poop!
