Can you fool a dog’s nose? Lots of people have tried to – those who smuggle narcotics have been particularly inventive – but failed. Dogs always find what has been hidden. For wild dogs, the ability to follow a scent means the difference between life and death. Your own dog – with the luxury of having its dinner served every day in a dish! – has just as good a sense of smell as its wild cousins. You can notice that when it refuses to leave an interesting place while out on a walk. Then it is human to be irritated, but when you have read this book you’ll be able to look at your dog with new eyes.
