OK, so I admit it, the one bad habit I have is sniffing crotches. Can't help it, just now mommy had a knock at the door and I ran her over to get to the door first. I wanted to be a gentleman and open it for her, she does not understand this as she feels I am trying to be the Alpha dog ( which I am by the way) and she pulls me back. Anyway, some guy was there who was asking a question and I broke free and did my thing, lunged towards his crotch and got a big whiff! Mommy was horrified and the man jumped. Mommy yelled and pulled me back but I was already buried nose deep in scent, finally I allowed her to pull me back, she was not happy.
I think the man kind of liked it as he laughed a lot, mommy was not laughing, and I was confined to the bathroom for the duration of the sell speech. No sell was made as I am sure mommy was too embarrassed to think. When she closed the door she let me out of the bathroom, I was of course very happy to be with her again and wagged my tail and gave her my happy smile. She just shook her head and giggled. I think she thought it was funny.
When I was a puppy, she was the one who took me to the puppy training classes and by the way I graduated as top dog in my class. Mommy really spent a lot of time training me and it showed. Anyway, one day I was smelling the instructor's crotch and the woman smacked my snout and told mommy that she needed to stop this behavior right away. Mommy found this strange as the instructor also specified to the group that hitting your dog was not a good training option, but this woman hit my snout! Mommy could never bring herself to hit me so I was never stopped from sniffing crotches but she does try to hold me back.
One time she had the minister and his family over for dinner and they had their two year old daughter with them who was still in diapers, the little girl ran up onto the couch and was sitting with legs apart and I could smell that diaper. I had my snout right up in there and mommy was horrified but the minister and his wife and daughter by the way just laughed. Mommy really did not think that was funny, but diapers really have a lot to offer to the nose in terms of scent.
I do not know why I do this, I am a dog and I guess I just like it. Plus I am friendly, maybe a little too friendly and forward in my getting to know someone but dogs will be dogs.
