I have 3 spaniels and its as if they are trying to dry their ears. my old dog rags did it too but the collies never, so perhaps its the long ears and maybe soap in them...as they dont do it when theyve been in river.. pepper always thinks she will catch a fish.....
. mind you then when they come out of river, they are usually going too fast to do much apart from stopping briefly and giving a quick shake before belting off again... usually right beside me so I get soaked too.
My dogs also get hyper and try to play with the towel after a bath but I put it all down to just being glad to be free again,
who really knows what goes through their walnuts of brains?
they never scrap but play fast and hard.
