to think there is little more pungently disgusting than the scent of wet dog?

it lingers for hours and gets in the soft furnishings.

BigDog is now clean but still stinks.

Ugh no YADNBU.

DH smells a bit like a wet dog if he gets caught in the rain too. Hmm

Not pleasant!

DooinMeCleanin · 21/07/2011 16:33

I have two words for you....

Fox poo.

Nothing compares to that.

Wet dog that has rolled in fox poo, and then been left in the car whilst you do some shopping. Yum, yum, yum.

YABU and so is Dooin - the worst smell in the world is rotten potatoes, or possibly festering lettuce. Putrid onions are pretty bad too.

although I agree fox poo and wet dog are not great. Bat shit wins though.

I use baby shampoo on my dogs, they smell lovely when wet. (Although I acknowledge that other dogs don't have ishoos like mine so will go out when it raining and get wet at times other than bathtimes.:o)

Solo · 21/07/2011 16:36

YABU. I like wet dog smell Blush

emptyshell · 21/07/2011 16:38

I was going to make the fox poo comment as well.

Set it out as a challenge to the dog - I'm SURE they'll find a smell to better wet dog in the yuk stakes (probably involving bodily fluids and decomposing things).

and now the SmallDog is foaming at the mouth. WTF is it with the animals in this house?

The house when you've been away for 10 days and your boyfriend hasn't noticed that various things have gone mouldy and started to smell, and the cat has demonstrated the fact that he's missing you by pissing in several separate locations, and you have to live with the smell for 20 mins while you figure out what's causing it. That's quite bad..

ditavonteesed · 21/07/2011 16:40

my dog only smells lovely when wet, she is not a water dog, she did stivk when she fell in the pond, I think that was the lumps of duck crap I had to pick off her though more than the actual wet.

AtYourCervix · 21/07/2011 16:41

very dead rodents under the sofa are also pretty bad.

Yanbu although Honeydog farts for the remainder of the day after a bath which is thoroughly disgusting.

Tortoise · 21/07/2011 16:42

YABU I like the smell of wet dog.

Popbiscuit · 21/07/2011 16:44

My dog smells disgusting, wet or dry.

Al0uiseG · 21/07/2011 16:45

Another hands up for fox poo, surpassed only by the smell of dead rotting fox!

Rupert had been running into the field to roll in fox crap and i couldn't believe it was lasting so long. I chased him into the field and found him rolling in the carcass of the fox.

cottonreels · 21/07/2011 16:46

Cat food - urrgghh

stupefy · 21/07/2011 16:47

Decomposing bodies win.

pjmama · 21/07/2011 16:49

Fox poo top tip - cover offending area in tomato ketchup and leave a few minutes before bathing. Takes the lingering stink right out.

pjmama · 21/07/2011 16:50

Incidentally my DH smells pretty bad the morning after a night on the beer followed by curry. Beer+curry=vile farts.

Just thought I'd bring the tone right down... Grin

KurriKurri · 21/07/2011 16:53

My last dog would always roll in filth given half a chance, his most disgusting rolls were in a long dead fish on the river bank - I gagged all the way home,
and on one glorious occasion a human poo which he found behind a clump of grass at the beach.

Kladdkaka · 21/07/2011 16:59

My brother's feet. European law on environmental hazzards means he can't take his shoes off. EVER!

DD and I vestured into the pest food aisle last Saturday by mistake. We were boaking and wondering why people would voluntarily have their house smell like that.
