So I am watching ruby rolling in something that I can only assume is stinky

Dogz.

it makes them happy, you need not understand why. 

My pitty goes nuts in out garden when we put fish heads in the soil, so I had to fence the whole thing off

Ruby thinks it is fun.  My theory is that in wild dogs, it serves two purposes:  camouflages their own smell and coats the fur strands which helps them remain waterproof.

I once used fish emulsion as a fertilizer and within minutes it was a scene from The Birds.

It always reminds me of The Far Side where a male dog is at the door of a female dog (of course in cat eye glasses) and says “You look beautiful, Ginger. And whatever you rolled in sure does stink!”

I don’t think so. She is too classy for that. It always seems to be something invisible.

So she's rolling in an imaginary smell?  Is she part cat?  I didn't know dogs did that too.

I do call her cat dog!  I guess since dogz have a very keen sense of smell it is lost on me. Yay!

I didn't know that was really a thing.

She is aboot cat size and shape, her markings would be at home on a cat, and she loves to lay as high as she can get. She is a picky eater. She does not like big dogs.

We use that also, but since I fish a lot, it's easier and cheaper to just use what I catch.
