She stinks something fierce... pet store is going to hate us again since it's bath time after she rolled in all the fish she found.

Why do dogs do that? Do we know/ have theories?

So they don't smell like dogs on the wind! Rather like cow poo, or in this case fish. Potential prey won't smell them coming.

Or in my dog's case, like rotten dead animal.

I'd take cow poo over that any day!
