Why do dogs do this? I will let her out and she will do it almost everytime. Does anyone know why and have a way to stop this MADNESS?

GROSS! SO it is her poop? VOMIT! we sorta live in the country so all this time I thought it was maybe deer or some sort of animal poop.

Well, the obvious answer is to clean up the poo. If there is none for your dog to roll in, then she may not. Note I say MAY not.
The next question is what are you using to clean your dog? If you are using a shampoo with a scent, the dog may be trying to remove the scent. Animals want to smell like the outdoors - and not like some human shampoo. Check wiht a local pet shop for a scentless shampoo for cleaning your animals.

If you dog is still a puppy then you should scold her and train her not to do it...but if she is a dog then I would say at the end of every day go out and clean the poop up.

Oh I feel for you!
We had a dog that did the same thing.
We don't know why she did it, but every time we let her out in the back yard to run, she would come back stinking to high heavens with crap all over her neck.
We finally had to watch her, and tell her NO when she started to roll in it.
Yes, clean up the mess after she goes.
Sorry, I don't know what else to tell you.
:-)

Our dog ate his poop all the time and my vet told me to put some meat tenderizer with MSG in his food. He said just to sprinkle a very small amount in his food. Apparently it makes the poop smell bad to them. He doesn't eat poop anymore, so I stopped giving him the meat tenderizer. Guess we just had to break the habit.

Easy to solve. Clean up the poo after she goes, and keep a supply of pet wipes on hand. Simple and efficient.

Clean up the poop when she goes and only take her out on a leash.

i think that is totally nasty . I am wondering about a device that i seen in a store it is supposed to help the dogs from barking ,but i think it would help it to stop laying in their poop . it shocks then not to badly but just a little to get then to stop doing wrong. I cant think of the name of it. If you don;t want to try the shock thing then your best bet would to be to take it to a vet and ask her about it.

um, keep her on a leash or long line for a few months, and correct her every time she even sniffs it.
