We tend to think a good walk means going fast and far until the dog is worn out. But for dogs, the nose is the most important 'eye' they have 🐶 A walk where your pup gets to stop and sniff every tree, patch of grass and lamp post actually burns mental energy, lowers stress and leaves them calmer at home.

Trainers call it a 'sniffari' - a walk built around exploring the world by smell. You don't need distance, just a slower pace and a little patience. Try 15 minutes letting your dog pick the direction and see the difference.

How long is your daily walk? Does your dog have a favourite 'sniff spot'? Tell me below!
