Just what is the attraction though? After doing exhaustive researched (I googled "dogs sniffing butts") I think I've found the answer. According to Dogster.com, smelling the other dogs' private area tells the dog a lot about the dog he is meeting, such as their gender and their sexual status.
I would assume it's the same rationale (if dogs even have the ability to rationalize, which I highly doubt... am I now heading down a very strange path?!) when they partake in this type of exploration with people. So am I to assume that the person Bosco ends up "hounding" (I just embarrassed myself) the whole night is the person that will have him panting after hours?
But the most interesting thing I found from my google search was this gem...
