I was looking at pics on here of some new pets and my 5 yr old lab/shep mix comes to the door, I let her in....she has rolled in something...Again...when I try to get it out I realize, its GUM...Ahhhhhh
Good think I love her, she really is a good dog just loves to roll, mostly in cow manure or other gross stuff.
Yuk

Gum is harder to get off/out than some of the other gross stuff.

Yuk! She's probably not real interested or cooperative
in your attempts to get it out of her hair,either.

I've heard peanut butter will help to remove it. Or maybe just some baby or olive oil. Haven't actually tried this though.

.. or something dead. :( Our dog loved to roll in dead things!

LOL!!! It least it's not something dead or some poop!!!

My labs used to dip under my Suburban and get oil on them selves. That and getting a little close to the BBQ!

I feel for you! As a child, we had a miniature poodle who loved to roll in poop too. My Mom said he liked to play big game hunter and disguise his smell that way. Poor thing couldn't figure out why we weren't so thrilled when he enthusiastic greetings.

At least it smells better than poop. :)

That was my dog, when she was with me. I took her down by the river, and ooohhhh, yuk! Is there anything worse than being dead and wet? It used to be a fish. Had to drive home with my head actually out the window, as much as possible!

Every day I ask myself why do these dogs want to roll in dirty & smelly stuff? I have no answers..I do know that one of them will be in the dirt within 5 minutes of getting outside after a bath.....

At least it is a dog, you can just the hair off and it won't be complaining about a bad haircut like a kid would!!

Every time I gave my dog a bath, before I could even towel her dry, if we were outside, she would be trying to roll in the grass or the dirt. I think she missed the whole point of the bath thing, or else she was trying to undo it! LOL

My little hound loved running the acres at MIL's. It was time to leave one summer day to return home and I noticed that he had been out rolling in "something" that he thought was nice and I didn't. I grabbed the hose and some hound shampoo and gave him a quick wash off. I rubbed him down with a towel and put the shampoo back, tossed him in car and headed down the road.

About 20 miles down the road I noticed a fragrance only to find that he'd rolled in some turkey doo. It was a very long 200 miles on a hot, hot summer day.
