Why does my dog rub its body on dead snakes?

Posted on 09/01/2007 9:20:11 AM PDT by SamAdams76

Whenever I am walking my dog and we see a dead snake on the roadway, my dog likes to rub its body on top. It will flop down and roll over and over on top of the flattened dead snake.

Why does my dog do that? Is it some primordial urge that cannot be explained?

Socks are a very big issue in the desert.

Of the utmost criticality.

Clinton, Dec. 19, 1998: "Earlier today, I ordered America's First Cat "Socks" to strike military and security targets in Iraq. ... His mission is to attack Iraq's nuclear, chemical, biological weapons and sock disappearance programs and its military capacity to threaten its neighbors and generally harass those searching for that illusive missing sock.... " ;-D
