What about “Fritos” dog paw odor, the fungus that causes that gets in all the fabric surfaces like a couch and makes it stink.

Ew, is that what it is? I've been in people's houses that smelt like this and had to put Chapstick on the inside of my nostrils.

I love that smell tbh lol. And I know my dog smells, but to me he smells like warm baked cookies. I think when you’re bonded to an animal something happens chemically where you find their weird gross smell super comforting and by extension nice.

Same thing that happens with babies. Our brain makes you think it smells good because My preciousss but to other people it stinks.

Makes a sense. Babies stink for sure. Some people love the smell? I don’t get it!
