Strange routine at my house.....

edited September 2014 in General Discussion
I have a well known obsession with lotion.....before the pervs start, no, don't even try...its common for a LADY to like lotion.

I don't know why, but my bulldog loves the taste of it.

So, every time I put it on my legs my English Bulldog tries to lick me whenever I stand still.

I'm running the vacuum and she is trailing behind me like a buzzing bee trying to sting someone....just barely tapping the back of my calves every chance she gets.

Its a strange process.....me yelling "Quit it Bitty" and her stalking me like prey throughout the house.

    "It put the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again" [:D]. I say the pooch likes that flavor of the grease. Then again them English are an odd lot.

    Yes....she is the strangest of the 4 dogs we have. She is like a clown. You just never know what she is thinking, but you KNOW she is up to something.

    I've got one here (laying at my feet right now) that likes the taste of soap. Don't leave a bar where she can get it, she'll eat it.

    Had a beagle that liked the taste of toe jam [:0]

    When I lived high up in mountains and did lots of snow plowing in winter my fingers would crack and bleed from the super-dry air. So I bought a big thing of hand lotion, trying to keep them suckers intact.

    No animals followed me around but I must say the controls of the front end loader did feel a good deal more welcoming at the start of a blizzard than they did without the lotion.

    Have you considered using a front end loader for house cleaning instead of a vacuum cleaner?

    Could make a difference.

    It would appear you don't hold the rank of "top dog" in your household.

    I'd bet Cesar Millan could put lotion on his legs and stand right next to your Bitty and she wouldn't even take a sniff at him.

    Bitty (the English Bulldog) is the only one that actually licks you. Huggy (the Pomeranian) will gnaw on your hair like he is trying to itch you with his tiny front teeth.....that HAS to be the strangest feeling on the planet. Neither of the big dogs (Golden or St Bernard) lick anyone....the Golden will RARELY lick you one time on your hand or knee.

    We had a Cocker Spaniel that would bathe the babies when they were little. It was too cute. They would be crawling by and she would just lick them all over as they went along.

    When we moved from Florida to Utah, I was astounded by how much skin lotion and lip balm we suddenly needed. My wife, two daughters, and I went through a 55-gallon drum of the stuff in the first few months, I swear. And it got worse the first winter! It's a shock to live the first 30 years of your life in 95% humidity, only to move to where it is in the single digits. You use a lot of lotion here, or your skin flakes off. Literally.

    That's still a weird dog, LF.
    I may be a bit crazy - but I didn't drive myself.

    Kasey,

    It must be a Bull dog thing.

    We had a Pit Bull that used to do the same thing when my wife used lotion...[:)]

    Get a soft water conditioner.

    Use 1/2 the soap from hair to clothes though.

    Your skin will love you for it.



    Waste of time conditioning the soft water. Better to spend your money on a hot water heater.

    Some people like their water super-soft -- and their hot water, super-heated. Don't belittle the specialized appliances made for these people! [;)]

    Our English Springer Spaniel will do the same thing to my wife when she puts lotion on her legs. Doesn't matter which scent or type lotion she uses.
