After the <A HREF="http://pitchpull.blogspot.com/2005/09/where-is-rewind-button.html" REL="nofollow">loss</A> of our first Dachshund, Frankie, we are pretty careful about keeping Lucy on a short leash, figuratively. We watch her like a hawk.<BR/>This smell is a chemical reaction between the environment and her skin or fur, made an even bigger mystery because our friend's Shi Tzu has the same problem... same type odor.Greybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11919862790973521778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-3366342348763795812007-08-24T22:31:00.000-07:002007-08-24T22:31:00.000-07:00Are you sure it isn't a ear or tooth thing?

Is she doing any chewing or licking?<BR/>yeah, there's no problem telling the anal sac smell from any other a dog might have. lol.<BR/>Is she rolling in anything particular in the yard that smells really yummy to her? <BR/>We will succeed in finding the cause of this problem GB.the golden horsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01997072300287533624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-85180204089187652202007-08-23T11:39:00.000-07:002007-08-23T11:39:00.000-07:00Ha.The canine business card?

This smell disappears in a hurry, Thank God!<BR/><BR/>I'm still searching, hoping someone will point me in the right direction.Greybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11919862790973521778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-19163643540991241432007-08-23T10:49:00.000-07:002007-08-23T10:49:00.000-07:00This is so funny!

When pets come back from doing their business, they must have a small about of fresh anal gland stuff on the outside of the sphincter. Also, the anal glands might contract even when the pooch just takes a leak --- muscles and nerves of the pelvic floor of humans do a lot of complicated things ,,,it might be true in canines too.<BR/><BR/>The anal gland stuff (man oh man is that stuff pungent) seems to be very important to other canines, I mean it's the first thing they check out in another dog. It seems logical they would refresh their personal ID card every chance they could.<BR/><BR/>Maybe you can teach Miss Stinky Butt to use toilet paper? Maybe some of those baby wipes? <BR/><BR/>Well, I know it isn't a good idea, it is just ONE idea.Purple Tabbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06383565717518107613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-8314080778230598102007-08-22T10:51:00.000-07:002007-08-22T10:51:00.000-07:00In your original post about Lucy's odor, you had a...In your original post about Lucy's odor, you had a link in your comments titled "not so bad" and I clicked on that and at the end of the article he had these "new breeds" and I was reading them and I thought "is this a joke?" I was kind of skimming over them quickly and saw the great pyranees/dachshund mix and I said to myself - NO WAY!<BR/>LOL<BR/><BR/>Then I realized it was a joke! Duh!<BR/>I was laughing my head off.The Jokerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14901382895476261522noreply@blogger.com
