So everyone seems in agreeance-after a bath the dog goes 'crazy' and zooms all over the house. In fact for me, if we let Mikey outside, he digs holes and rolls around in it (He is not being a bad dog-he has designated digging spots in the yard

)
So I'm reading this book "Inside of a Dog' and it's basically a look at their sensory systems and what that really means for us. I am really liking it as I studied perception all the way through to the grad level and find it very interesting.
What it basically suggests is this: You know how your dog goes crazy to roll in something disgusting? That's very similar to how they act when they get out of the bath -and perhaps they are trying to rid 'cocunut lavendar' and get back some of thier VERY important, distinctive doggy smell.
It makes a LOT of sense to me; given how they are such olfactory animals-and also how similar the behavior seems compared with when the roll in bird poop or dead fish. Mikey even rolls after a bath if allowed in dirt

Especially the dirt where somebody's cat poops in our yard.
What do you guys think?
