People constantly ask us: “How do I stop my dog from sniffing everything on walks?” Short answer? You don’t. 😀 Think of sniffing as your dog’s version of scrolling through Instagram. It’s how they check the “news” and catch up on the neighborhood. Just 20–30 minutes of their “scrolling” a day fulfills a basic biological need, lowers their heart rate, and helps them feel secure. You get your screen time, so let them have their sniff time. 🐾 | SpiritDog Training
