I saw that Snuffy. Making my way to the toilets at the time.

I didn't see the dog scraping its paws down you though. Condolences. But it was probably only playing and he's never done that before anyway. Dog lovers will probably tell you it comes from their pre-domestication days. Inheritance. You can't stop it. Dogs do that. And as you say - no harm done. Learn to live with it.

After all they are almost human aren't they? Dogs I mean - not morris dancers.
