Sniffing is your dog’s way of exploring the world—it’s like reading the daily news! Their noses are highly sensitive and help them gather detailed information about other animals, people, and even time. Allowing some sniffing time is good for their mental stimulation, but if it becomes excessive, you can train them to focus on walking with commands and treats. Balance is key!
