Skyler modeling one of the many dog bandanas just arrived in, for all the pups to wear on walks...soo cute 🐶

Not only will the pups look cute, but the bandanas are mulit functional 👌🐾

They will help keep the pups cool by freezing them on those warmer days, hoping we get them 😆🙈 🤞

We will also be able to use a natural & safe flea/tick reppellent of Lavander oil & almond oil. A drop to the outside of the bandanas, is enough to repell 😁

Please do see below advise from PDSA also, as the bandanas just provide an extra layer of protection. We will be following the below advise also 🙏🥰🐕

Shake it…shake it off…

A recent study by two researchers in France looked at sniffing, pulse rate, and leash length on walks. Sixty-one dogs were taken on three separate walks, five minutes each walk, once with a 1.5m leash, once with a 5m leash, and once without a leash at all (walk order was randomized for each dog). Off-leash dogs sniffed the most, more than 3x as long as the dogs on short leashes. Dogs on long leashes spent nearly as much time as unleashed dogs sniffing, almost 3x as long as dogs on short leashes.

This study also found that sniffing resulted in lowered pulse rates, and the more intensely they sniffed, the more their pulse rates lowered. Pulse rate was also lowered when dogs “shook off” during walks on all leash lengths. The “shake off” behavior was often seen when the dog’s pulse rate was particularly high.

What else can we learn about dogs from their walking behavior? Take your best friend on a Sniffari and see what you observe!
