    Hadn't felt any difference in temp and we haven't changed shampoo or anything.
    We do live on a property and they are forever getting into mud patches and things, we just hose them down, let them dry off and give them a proper bath once eveyr couple of months, over summer once every month as it's warmer and helps cool them down.
    As soon as we have a nice warm day i might empty out the old bathtub and put it out the front where i can chain them up and give her a good scrub.

    Then if nothing environmental has changed that she could be having a reaction to either I would say that it is a habit she has formed. You could try putting some bitter lime or some other bad tasting solution on the spot and that might deter her.

    Thx guys, will give her a good wash off and check it again in a couple of days, will get another flea treatment for her but we def can't see any and see how she goes, might give her some more time inside.. our boy seems ok it's just her... will see how we go.

    not much more to add, but our dog has terrible allergies and is constantly licking, so i can sympathize on the disgusting sound! drives me batty! Hopefully you can find what it is that is causing her to lick.

    It is likely that either she needs her anal glands emptied (and checked for infection) or she has a hot spot.
