Drag likes the smell of dogs. It smells like warm soft friendship.

There’s the smell of dogs, then there’s the smell of infrequently bathed dogs.

Cats and dogs are very much the same in that non-owners usually can walk into an owner’s house and know there’s a cat or dog there. It’s, not necessarily a bad smell, buts there.

The same way that I can tell if a specific coworker was hoteling in the office. She gets her perfume from Claire’s (yes, the same strawberry-bliss or whatever it’s called from middle school…).

Infrequently bathed dogs, however is another story.

I think you may be biased by your ownership? Breed and genetics play a huge role here. Huskies, for instance, require very little bathing. In fact, with many dogs over-bathing is bad for their skin and can lead to worse smells when they are not bathed due to the removal of oils.

I don’t own either atm.

I’m not at a place where I can give pets the full attention they deserve. I do love both.

A well cared for dog is going to not smell awful, same as a well cared cat. On the other hand, there is a smell all the same.

Btw, a poorly cared for cat is going to reek something fierce. They might take care of themselves better, but if they don’t have what they need, (a clean living environment, including the litter box,) they’re going to have problems.

I’d choose my dogs’ scent over the scent of most humans that I’ve met.

I’ve never had a smelly dog. I usually have spaniels and they smell pretty neutral. But I’ve encountered some pretty musky dogs or breeds.

Spaniels can smell nasty if you live in a cold wet climate. They love rubbing themselves in the woods to go into contra hunting mode, smelling like the dead.

Dogs that shed naturally smell less because they keep getting rid of the body oils. Again, doesn’t work if they like finding wet spots to relax.

My biggest issue was the ear smell cause they are susceptible to ear infections
