Flies are attracted to dogs because they are drawn to the scent of their fur, especially if the dog has a strong odor or if there are areas of moisture or food residue on their body. Flies may also be attracted to wounds or sores on the dog's skin. Keeping your dog clean and using preventative measures like flea and tick treatments can help reduce the presence of flies.

Why does dog mess have maggots in it?

After a dog defecates, flies are drawn to their fecal matter. The flies eat what they want and then mate and lay eggs in the feces. Flies try to always lay eggs where their young will have something to eat as soon as they are able. So the fly larvae (maggots) hatch and grow in the dog mess.
