Why does my dog love wet hair... but hates baths?

It’s kind of funny… my dog goes absolutely nuts when I lay down with wet hair. It’s like catnip for him. He bites my hair, rubs his face in it, and just goes crazy. But when it comes to baths or showers, he’s not a fan at all. Anyone have any idea why he loves my wet hair so much but hates getting wet?

He might be trying to rub his scent on you? Dogs are just weird like that. They often want to mark their territory.

Lol, dogs are definitely strange creatures. Maybe it’s the smell of the wet hair that excites him. It’s different from the usual scents around the house.

I think it’s just a fun texture for them. Wet hair feels different, and they love to play with things that feel new and interesting.

Honestly, dogs can be so picky about what they like. Mine loves to get wet in the pool but hates baths. Maybe it’s about control for them?

I can relate… my dog loves when I come out of the shower but runs away when I try to give him a bath. It’s like they have their own rules.
