Dogs want to smell terrible. Dogs absolutely love to roll in filth. It's an evolutionary thing. They're predators, and they want their prey to think "there's a big pile of poo nearby" rather than "there's a big dangerous pack of dogs nearby."
Cats, on the other hand, don't want you to smell them at all. Which is why they are so obsessive about burying both poo and pee, and why they'll spend an inordinate amount of time grooming themselves.
I have no explanation as to why dogs love to rummage through catboxes for, uh, "treats." We had two cats and a dog in my house in my teenage years, and it was something I observed first hand far, far more often than I wanted.

Dogs are like quarks: they cannot exist outside of a pile of filth, just like a quark cannot exist outside of a hadron. If you remove the filth from a dog, the dog will generate new filth from the background vacuum.
Wingy:
My mother, who raised 3 boys, would make the same statement about men-children. My wife makes the same statement about my home office, which is why she is forbidden to bring any cleaning utensils within it.

Yes, dogs use dead things as camouflage, to disguise their odour. Cats are both predators and prey, so they bury their waste so predators can't find them. Dogs eat cat poop because cat food is high in protein, which results in dogs interpreting the cat poop as being food.
Is it cold in here?:
--- Quote from: BenRG ---Yes, Hanners is a lot smarter than baseline but the multiple layers of gene alterations have left her with a string of genetic neurochemical disorders that leads to most of her mental health issues.

There is a reason to think you are right. Years ago, Jeph said that he knows the reason for Hannelore's mental health problems and that it is a plot point. I cannot remember where or when he said that.

YEAH! HANNELORE! WOO!
