I think he enjoys getting wet (which Pete mentioned) - but its a good idea, I really really hope he doesn't shit in it because floating shit is nasty.

actually they dont, rubbing there nose in it is not only the dumbest thing I have ever heard of, it also doesnt work. You have to catch them in the act. They dont know why you are grabbing their head and forcing it anywhere. Its a good way to make your dog either afraid of your hand near their head, or a good way to turn your dog against you for forcing it to do something it doesnt want to do.

:chuckles: I'm well aware. :run:

All I know is both Bigfoot and his successor, Epsilon would get a little rank after about two months... and our house is nothing if not clean. h:

Well I beg to differ - my dog learned everytime I rubbed his nose in it.

Civic2Scooby is right....you dog probably had no idea what you were doing or why you were doing it. My guess is the dog figured out not to do it for other reasons.
