THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING…SNIFFY

dog walker south moltonDid you know that a dog has 300 million scent receptors in their nose, compare to our 6 million. That’s why the love to sniff EVERYTHING and that’s why it’s so important that we let them sniff and encourage them to.

Morris is an adorable 17 week old puppy that we have the pleasure to take out on our ‘pop in puppy’ visits. As his bones are growing it’s important that he isn’t over exercised physically so we make sure we exercise his brain with lots of scent work sniffing out treats in the grass.

Today after a good 15 minute session of sniffing, followed by some practice getting in and out of the van Morris was completely shattered!

So whenever you can let your dog(s) have a good old sniff and search for treats in the grass, they’ll love you for it 🥰
