Rolling in Stinky Things
For some reason, things like dead animals, manure, feces and garbage are very
attractive to dogs, and there is nothing in the world they would rather roll in
and smell like.
The dogs instinct tells them that the terrible smells will cover
up their scent, or maybe they just like to smell awful ?
The best way for you to stop your Westie from diving into the garbage pile is
never giving him the chance.
Keep him fenced in your garden, pick up any manure
in the area, and keep the garbage in trash cans that won't pop open if he knocks
them over.
Keep him on a leash when you go on walks, and keep a sharp eye out
for any smelly things that may strike his fancy.
