She makes up for it on walks . .nose to the ground!!

We can’t let Bella hang her head out the window (lesson learned after a particularly unsuccessful trip to PetSmart – cleaning out a window well is not easy, although cleaning the side of the car isn’t so bad… I hope no one was behind us at the time). However, she parks herself within easy smelling distance of an A/C vent and gets her fix that way.

It’s just amazing. She often walks along sniffing and then stops dead in her tracks, starts digging right below her, only to uncover some grub or some other “tasty” critter to eat. I think that is how she fed herself in the wild. 🙂

I have always wondered if their brain just goes into overdrive smelling all the scents that are going by so fast!!

Shiva’s brain is directly connected to her stomach. If it has a scent, Shiva will eat it. 😛

I do wonder what it would be like, however. Humans focus so much on our sight. Would it be distracting if we could smell as well as dogs, or would it be helpful?

It’s great having a sense that is so attuned you can almost “see” with it, but it’s not nice when you’re living with a chubby dog like my big sister Jess, she is slowly destroying the ozone layer!
Love your blog

What surprised me was her intensity, and she even smelled my hair. I wondered what kind of information she gathered about where I’d been.

That boy has been raising hos nose and searching the breeze for scents since he was only 8 weeks old. If he catches a scent, it’s all over…there he goes!
