Bob you smelled all of those delightful smells and never felt the need to leave a "little of yourself" behind! LOL!
Pam, I had a German Shepherd, Duke, who was just like that it would take half an hour just to walk to the end of the street, no exaggeration. Unlike Bobby who, though he loves to 'read' the messages, his own are left with a fair distance between.

However Bobby has no shame in when it comes to stopping in the middle of the road to poop. There are lots of narrow-ish roads with no pavements where I live and three of those are on our way to and from the park. Being in the middle of the road cleaning up poop whilst a car, or two, is waiting to pass is not fun. He has now learned to 'go' before we leave home, but, as he is an 'at least two a day' dog, it does still happen now and again before we reach the spaciousness of the park.
