McKenzie had a good roll at the cow park this afternoon so she earned herself a bath The good news is, while she still hates the bath, she's getting slightly better and not screaming as much as she used to, and I only got one big scratch this time

She's always really funny after a bath and I'm wondering if all dogs do this, or if I just have a particularly nutty one

Jenny does that too and so did my other dog so I assume it is perfectly normal.

Either that or I only own nutty dogs which could be a distinct possibility. Just like I have never owned a cat which likes catnip :lol:

 

[Dogless]

That is cute; Kilo does it as well, but will also enter full zoom mode too so does some high speed drying and rolling!

 

[Zaros]

Believe it or not, Oscar has taught us to put a special blanket on the bed for him simply because everytime he comes in from a walk in the pouring rain he makes a Bee-line straight for the bed to do exactly what Mckenzie does along the floor.

And before someone makes another comment about 'Stinking wet Dogs' and 'I wouldn't have them on my bed' when they come in all bedraggled and wet from the forests they actually smell of Pine.

What peculiar beings our dogs are!

I'd love to see a big dog doing this - someone has to video their big dog next time they get wet!!!

Not many wetter places than NI :yikes: so I'll try and remember. Having said that - it's a lovely morning again!

 

[Polimba]

Zimba does this too. If we've been out in the rain :yikes: he does a dramatic full speed zoom to the rug to do this.

i cant get my jack russell into the bath hes a tazmanian devil but my rottie jumps in but afterwards charges around the house like a dog on illegal drugs
he then growls at the carpet then dives on it?

 

[Quinzell]

We have a worn spot on the carpet outside the bathroom where Harvey "dries his feet" after a bath. He does zoomies more than the rubbing on the carpet, I think. He's due a bath today so I'll try and have the camera ready

 

[lipsthefish]

All of ours have done this, when we had fabric couches they would rub against them too (4 big wet dogs and a cream fabric couch do not mix :yikes: ) I've always tried to dry them super well with a towel but it makes no difference

 

[terrierist]

Scrappy does this outside, on walls or the pavement, ifhe has been in the canal/puddle/rain!!!

 

[PinkEars]

Lola did that Walt just comes to you for a towel and blow dry! He loves the hair dryer!

 

[BessieDog]

Bess isn't too bad, but with my old dogs I had to yell for someone to open all the doors and warn people to stand out the way. As soon as the bathroom door was open they'd fly downstairs into the garden and have super zombies for ages!

Bess seems happy to be given a good rub with a towel.

 

[Rikalaily]

Oliver does it but uses the edge of the couch and under the cushions to dry his face off.

 

[kat&molly]

Nearly all the dogs I groom would do it given the chance.
Our Jay's the worst- she'll go in to the hedge and roll in the dirt to dry herself.

 

[Fleur]

All 3 of mine do it too

Although Missy is the queen of mad rubbing and rolling in this house

SHe not only rolls over thae carpet and other absorbant materials - she does it on the leather sofa


She does it if she's been out in the rain, after a bath, been sprayed with the grroming spay to freshen her up and she even does is when she's perfectly dry but excited to see you - in which case she'll try to do it on you

 

[Freddie and frank]

Yes,mine too.
I hose them down outside if they're dirty then dry them off with a towel.
Frank will then roll himself all over the garden and run around like a loon.
Freddie is a bit more reserved. He prefers a good old towel rub and a more dignified roll on the grass.

Mckenzie is so cute.love the way she shakes and her back legs go all wobbly.bless her.:001_wub:

 

[Tarnus]

Izzy prefers the "tumble dryer" method of drying off after a bath

(this was after she'd already done the same thing on our bed, leapt downstairs in 2 bounds and already done zoomies around the living room! I stopped her after these though as she looked knackered!!)

 

[HandsomeHound]

Mine used to do that, not after a bath, because he was bathed by the groomer, but often after he'd eaten, and before I'd managed to grab the flannel and wiped his chops His favourite rubbing place was the sofa, but he'd also rub against the wall, or the hedge, and would rub on the carpet too - I always assumed he did it because he was happy

 

[Nukawin]

Tucker does that! XDDD

Ripley and Milo just tackle each other after a bath!
