⏰ Did you know your dog can actually **smell time**?
Dogs’ noses are so powerful that they can detect how air currents shift as the day goes on - meaning they know when the mail carrier usually shows up or when it’s almost dinner without ever seeing a clock.
So what does this have to do with walks?
👉 Your dog’s nose is constantly telling them what happened *moments ago* (that squirrel that passed by), *hours ago* (the neighbor’s dog who marked that tree), and even *yesterday*.
When your dog seems distracted, they’re not being “stubborn”… they’re literally walking through a story told by smells.
The good news? With the right connection games, you can become the most interesting part of that story.
