Frankie Laney on Aug 02, 2013It's called scent rolling. You've probably seen dogs on walks finding something disgusting, and to the horrified owner, he just rolls in it. Normal behavior for a dog to roll in something with a strong scent. My dainty little toy poodle acts like a dirty dog and loves to roll in cat poop and dead worms and bugs! There could also be another reason, that is if he has a tummy issue dogs seem to know that fresh mint helps to sooth.Helpful Reply

Mary Insana on Aug 02, 2013Whenever I clean with a spray bleach product one of my cat goes crazy rolling on the throw carpets in the bathroom. If I have any bleach scent on my hands he rubs his face against my hands and nibbles me. It's crazy what some pets like.Helpful Reply
