I don't need to tell you (yet again ) what Snowie loves. This evening on our usual walk he ran off into the bushes. My husband, who also walks Snowie on the same route, has said that Snowie disappears on the walk and he's sure he's going off to eat human poo. It has never happened with me. Until this evening. I followed him as much as I could although he had gone down where only those with four legs -- or I suppose those desperate enough -- can go. I could see he wasn't just sniffing a spot where another dog had marked; there was definite jaw movement. I scolded him in my most scolding voice and he sauntered out back to the path. Aaarrrgggghhhhhhhh. Could it get any worse?????? His face was STREAKED in poo!!!!! All across his muzzle up to his eyes. And then he went back for more! (I should've leashed him up before he could go back, but I was feeling rather disgusted about getting to close to his face!) He clearly couldn't care less that I scolded him. So I ran off along the path and let him know I was going -- and thankfully he came tearing after me. Had to tell everyone we passed not to touch him! And at the small hole where water collects in the rainy season, I threw pieces of bamboo (grows there) into the water so that he'd submerge his snout as much as possible, hoping it would clean it somewhat (didn't!). Back at the car I only had some dried-out windscreen wipes, so I poured water over those and cleaned up his face as much as I could. Back home I still had to prepare his dinner -- which included stinky green tripe. And he had the audacity to whimper cos I was not fast enough in preparing his dinner! Clearly loves Stink Food! After dinner I shampooed his face. Of course he resisted, hates the hosepipe, but I was not giving in and kept him in a vice grip (my husband did ply him with treats) while I made sure we did not have to sleep with remnants of someone we don't know! Hopefully those of you who are at your wits end with your own dog's behaviour might find this post comforting! At least this is not happening to you!!!
Snowy! He IS gross. I am so grateful we don't have that problem here (though there is a pair of underpants with a clump of poo on hanging on the hedge behind the telecom cabinet - beggars belief how they ended up there, on a main road!)
Ugh, that awful moment when they reappear from behind the hedge licking their lips... with a bit of toilet paper dangling from the corner of their mouth... WHY OH WHY do we love them so???
Just when I think your Snowie stories couldn't get any worse... I can't...wait (?) to see how he tops this one.
Oh dear. SNOWY! Sorry to use your distress to make myself feel better, but this has cheered me no end! Jessie just threw herself into the stickiest mud in the river today, just before I had to pick my little boy up from his second day at school! By the time I had cleared her up sufficiently to let her into the house I was covered in stinking water with no time to change and had to dash up to school stinking of wet dog and stagnant river mud.... There are some serious yummy mummies at school, I am clearly not one! Your poo incident makes me feel SO much better, thanks for sharing!!!! I am massively grateful for lack of human poo in our vicinity!!
Another good laugh thanks to you and Snowy. I hope that doesn't sound too awful as I wouldn't wish the human poo eating experience on anyone, but his stories just make me crush on him more. I love me some Snowy! Though I am starting to suspect the real reason behind such a nicely-colored black nose in his pic/your avatar. Perhaps not ALL color from his actual nose?
Its happened to us plenty and worse one every was Doug and midge fighting over a pair of poo filled pants.it was going everywhere. Snowie is the poop king thought definitely
Yuk Snowie that is disgusting, @jessieboo yummy mummies are soo over rated. Personally I like the windswept hair, covered in mud look. It's so 2016.
