Looks like we've dug ourselves into a deep hole, haven't we? Thanks to juan valdez, I learned something new today, makes sense. =)
My dog likes to get sprayed with water in the face. She's a weirdo. We also tried that yuck spray that has rosemary in it to stop her from chewing stuff and she LOVES to lick it.
I actually tried that before too, unless my dog started liking it. She would bark in the back, untill I sprayed her. Never stopped anything though. Just made a bigger mess...mud!
I wouldn't be complaining if my dog were digging MY POOL in the backyard... I'd be making him work extra time... "I want it in the shape of a peanut... and hurry up." ... so who's putting all the plumbing and filters and stuff in?

I'm guessing the poop on their paws annoyance is because they are most sensitive between their pads right?
It's her pent up energy. you need to send her to a dog training school.. they shouldn't be choking themselves during walks.. they should be following your pace
