observation and good recall the key
if you catch her before the shoulder then she wont roll

Work on your recall.
Invest in a hose pipe in the garden.

If I have to walk through them they go on lead, but I purposely try and avoid walks that involve livestock fields.
Mine generally have a pretty good recall and don't range too far, but if there is a steaming pile of fox poo (or similar), they won't stop until they have had a good roll.
) so its either field or not, but I might have to try and avoid it for a while, the worst thing is I've recalled her off a chase, but off a cow pat, never!

My usual tactic is just to find a pond or something afterwards so she can go for a swim to get it all off.. she still usually has some on her head if it was a really good roll
