We haven't had her long, but on every walk, Isis likes to stop to smell the flowers. She will walk up to them, and sick her nose up to each bloom. I watch closely to make sure she's not trying to eat them, but, she never even opens her mouth.

Yesterday, we walked next to a flowering bush, and she not only needed to stick her nose in the flowers that were on her level, but stood on her back legs to stick her nose in the higher flowers, and even attempted to jump to get her nose to the highest blooms.

Any idea what she's doing?

That's pretty funny! Don't see any harm in it other then slowing up your walk

Koda always stops and smells the flowers, he looks so cute when he does it.

Glad to know Isis isn't the only one that does it.

My sibe stops at flowers for the sole purpose of looking for bees to chase.

Mine attempts to eat flowers, and also chases any bees that are there too XD

Mya smells them and Kody "smells" them, but what he's really doing is trying to trick me into thinking that he's simply "smelling" them and then all of a sudden BAMMMMMM he snatches one!!!

My girls try to eat the flowers, usually just the smaller ones.

Isis hasn't gone after any bees yet, the buzzing my throw her off. She does like to chase moths, and last night she grabbed a cricket that had made it into the house.

HAHAHAHA Kale does that too, but not with flowers lol He gives you the sideglance to make sure your not looking. Used to make me soooo mad, but now I just think it's funny lol goofballs

mine smells them....so he can pee on them

Luka loves to smell the flowers! Thats why we gave her the middle name flower.

Maybe they are trying to teach us that every once in awhile we need to stop and smell the roses too
