That’s like asking a Sommelier why they drink wine since it all just tastes like vinegar.
If your nose was as refined as a dog, you’d appreciate the musk of a good asshole.
I think that last line fully describes everyone who voted for Trump…you even got a name drop of Elon…nice work…no sarcasm in this just much appreciation
Whether it smells “good” or not, it’s probably very dense in information.
They have a lot of brain and nose real estate dedicated to processing such smells for useful information and also stronger stomach acid and enzymes in the digestive system to make ingesting poop much less threatening for a typical dog vs. the average person. So they typically benefit from such investigations whereas people would get not much info from such behaviors but would be way more likely to get some awful disease. Better for us to have a body that says “uhhh don’t do that” whereas they have instincts that tell them to go right on ahead.
Dogs have a much different idea of what a good smell is. We have caught our dog trying to eat cat poop straight from the litter box. My husband had a dog who would roll in poop. They apparently think shit a delightful and delicious smell.
