During our dog walk today – Archie was intrigued with this leaf and spent ages sniffing it!
Humans have 5 million scent glands, where as dogs have between 125 million and 300 million, depending on the breed of dog.
The mucus on a dogs nose actually helps it smell by capturing scent particles. When a dog’s nose in dry it will lick it to aid their scent. Wow!!
Feeling very lucky!
I was out on my early morning dog walk with Max and we were walking along the path by the River Allen. We had just crossed the little bridge by the Allendale car park and there she was (small pretty head), swimming along the surface with her head just out of the water. She looked at us then dived and re surfaced a few feet ahead.
What an amazing sight!
“We engaged Fran based on recommendation – the best move we ever made. She has walked our lovely puppy since we got him. She is always available, always on time, we love her daily journal and her texts to confirm she has arrived offer great peace of mind to us when we have to leave him feeling guilty as we have to work. She is honest and reliable but perhaps best of all she loves our puppy and he definitely loves her. I have seen them out together on their walks and been home unexpectedly when she arrives, he definitely loves her. She has worked hard on his lead skills and behaviours and offers lots of great advice (but only if you ask, which I do now, often)
