Pooch Cafe by Paul Gilligan for December 08, 2013

The power of a dog’s nose, glad we don’t have it for it would drive us crazy .

Central Florida: low in the 60’sF high 70-80!

Actually I’d like it a bit cooler low in the 50’s to high in the low 70’s

Don’t think this would work for our Collie- she doesn’t like paper towel tubes. At least, not if you hold it to your mouth and speak through it. She barks and jumps and tries to go for it. Then if you twist and crush it she looks surprised and relieved.

My little Schnorkie’s nose all over me after I have taken the cat to the vet. If she had 16 more noses with which to sniff, she’d be happy.

My son lives in Aurora. I’m retired in Tucson. He was always the genius in the family :)

This also would work at Halloween; looks like an alien spreading out from the house!

And now you know the answer to “What to get the dog who has everything?”

Actually a dog could smell all of those from inside the house without the tubes. It’s just that they prefer to put their nose directly on whatever they are sniffing.

My step mother’s dog is going blind and is just learning to use sound and scent as his means of navigation..I have a particularly good sense of smell… unfortunately, certain smells trigger my epilepsy.

How many “accidents” must Poncho have had to use up that many paper towels?
