Ceremonial Dance of the Dead Bug Is this is a common dog thing?  When my dog sees a dead bug, he flops over and writhes around on it.  Is it to make sure the bug is properly dead?  Is it to coat himself in the scent of the bug, like perfume or to intimidate the other dogs?  Does dead bug make good emollient and if so, should I try it? via my flickr Our Lilly does that on fox pee and even poo in our garden. We hate that!

Ceremonial Dance of the Dead Bug

Is this is a common dog thing?  When my dog sees a dead bug, he flops over and writhes around on it.  Is it to make sure the bug is properly dead?  Is it to coat himself in the scent of the bug, like perfume or to intimidate the other dogs?  Does dead bug make good emollient and if so, should I try it?
