Nose Dive

Marge does this funny thing when we put her face harness on to tell us that she doesn't like it. She plants her nose on the ground and starts pushing her face along the carpet. She also does it outside sometimes in the grass.

I have always just assumed she was trying to get her harness off. Then I read somewhere that that is what dogs do when they find a scent that they like and they want to remember it, or mark it with their scent, or whatever.

I still think that for the most part Marge is simply making her displeasure known. But for the particular instance in the video, it was definitely a fun smell thing.



Unfortunately, said fun smell was actually deer scat or something similar. Clearly though, I realized this too late. Suddenly it was time for an unscheduled bath.
