A walk isn’t only about how far you go. 🐶🌿
For dogs, sniffing is how they gather information about their surroundings. Every interesting scent can reveal who has passed by, what has changed and what might be nearby.
Allowing your dog time to stop and investigate:
✓ Encourages natural behaviour
✓ Provides valuable mental stimulation
✓ Lets them explore at their own pace
✓ Can make an ordinary walk more interesting and fulfilling
You don’t need to let your dog pull you from one smell to the next. Choose a safe area, use a comfortable, correctly fitted Y-shaped harness and allow some relaxed sniffing time on a lead with a little more freedom.
Some walks can be about exercise and training. Others can simply be about exploring. Your dog benefits from both. 💚
Find comfortable harnesses, leads and enrichment essentials at Animal Junxion Linden Lanes.
Let them stop. Let them investigate. Let them sniff. 🐾
