    The scent in these, er, materials does have a real value.

    By sniffing the material, other canines can detect what the depositing animal ityself had been eating, and so know if there is food in the area.

    The scent may be unattractive to us, but, presumably, the scent of a lady fox smells very attractive to male dogs, and conversely. They can't get enough of it. image

    Morning all.

    I showed OH Deano's photo (P. 1325) of plantlings indoors, although they look very neat I don't think it's going to happen here! Think I'd worry about the carpets too. I replaced them after first OH died and I did B & B.

    There was a dreadful animal fight outside the kitchen last night which woke me up and made Tigger (Border Collie) bark and Alexa, the cat, was trembling. This morning when I went out there was blood, fur and poo (looked like cat or small dog) on the kitchen terrace, but animals had gone. There are lots of creatures living in the woods, stone martens, badgers, foxes, deer, wild boar, red squirrels, grey European dormice etc.

    Good morning everyone,

    Really nice day here to will get outside soon and carry on filling my raised bed that I made with old railway sleepers. Put six barrow loads of horsr and chicken poo in yesterday but need lots more yet.

    Bunny, so excited for you about your cornflowers. image

    Hope all the smelly dogs are clean now. My dog's favourite perfume is dead things.

    I always thought they rolled to disguise their scent when they were hunting.

    They are lovely, how unusual a dog playing with a rabbit!
