Zeke has gotten into the habit that if he smells fox poo.. he will role in it at wits end and it blooming stinks and gets all over his collar and harness and then when we get back home he goes wild and wipes it everywhere! Its driving me crazy. Any ideas on how to stop him??

Thanks Guys Big Grin

Training, and a strong leave command! So glad mine doesn't do this, but only you can get him out of the habit, maybe carry some wet wipes with you on walks Xx

I know of a dog that does this all the time, with it being of its lead theres not much stopping it. Maybe have a bath ready for when Zeke gets home?!

As Janey says, you need a strong leave command or a strong recall! Add to that a good knowledge of doggie body language so you can see when he's about to roll.

Other than that, a hose pipe ready for when you get home! Big Grin

Its a VERY hard habit to break but as said, just a very strong LEAVE command.

Thorough and firm training will be your best option for things like that. Practicing recall and the 'Leave' command will probably be your best shot.
