Dogs and their monthly inquisitiveness

[BadgerBadger]

Why do they do it?! How can they be stopped? Is it a question of manners?

I have to use pads, which I assume makes the problem worse, I arrived at a friends house recently, freshly showered, padded and determined to make it across the threshold unsniffed, but no.

Lift leg to step through door only to find progress hindered by rather large snout thrust firmly into groin

Are some dogs worse than others and why are they so damn interested anyway?!

LMAO at this!! sorry! Very true though, I can never get through the front door at my mum's without being given away!
I have no idea why they're so interested,would like to know the answer to this too

Can anyone put us out of our sniffery?!

BTW, I like your new name vm!

We surely can't be the only ones that suffer from the intrusive sniffing
Maybe we just know very peculiar dogs? lol

ROFL, seems as though we are VM, or at least, the only ones who will admit to it!

For the record, I'm talking about one particular dog, not all.

I always know whan my period is about to start as my dog is permantly fixated with my groin. I find it quite useful - means I never have any unexpected accidents!

Unfortunately I think some dogs are just more prone to it than others, often the hunting breeds.

Hello by the way BBB, hope things are good with you and the DDs.

LMAO TSaP, I hadn't thought there could possibly be a positive aspect to this!

ARealWitch, are you THERealWitch? If so, how are you?! I was thinking of you today and we're doing ok thanks.

Ours is a springer - an expert sniffer!
It has taken me a while to put a positive spin on it.

My worst experince was having the ofsted insepctor call round - he had her menstrual cycle worked out in seconds.

Its just how they work out who you are, and what you are in the pack. When you are extra sniffy they sniff even more. You can't mask anything from a dog with Radox/Sanex you know.....

Somen I knows female doberamn actually used to growl at me every 28 days. Now that scared me!

Eh? I meant "someone I knows female Doberman"

I had a labradour reach in to my bag and take out my knickers (EWM not ....the other) and rip them to shreds in the kitchen of the friends' holiday cottage at which we were staying.

Kind of put me off dogs really.

Actually, on that front Suzy, I knew of someone who dumped a bloke as they thought it was him tearing up their knickers with their teeth in the night.

Nope.

really?

why were your knickers in your bag??

because I was a guest in someone else's home and I didnt' fancy draping then over the bedpost

Oh, the shame of the dog appearing, carrying a soiled sanitary towel in its mouth.

BattyBadger - yes it's me

Up and down days at the moment, MIL has been diagnosed with breast cancer and isn't taking the news too well so we have some tough days ahead.

right sorry now I understand!

My ILs dog did it when i was pg more than any other time.

suedonim I am ing for you

Come to think of it - I wonder if this is why my dog once jumped on a female market-researcher who came to our house and started shagging her?? My dog's a speyed bitch, btw!!

Thats standard doorstep response to market researchers isnt it?

you either
a) dont answer the door or
b) get dog to shag leg of said researcher to get them to leave as quickly as possible.
c) if none of the above work, throw football.....

Hehehehe!!!

I had someone come to my house who had recently had a child and was still breastfeeding. The dog went straight for her nipples and had to be dragged away... there's nothing you can say to cover the social hiatus that leaves...

serahscarer: why did she logically think it was the boyfriend????
