You own my dog! When he was young and we would take him for walks his nose was always glued to the ground. We called the snuffing SPMs. Sniffs per minute, much the same as RPMs in a car. When Cecil hits a stinky trail, you can't even catch up to count. 
And there is no way you could pack enough food for a mammal-vac like a Beagle. Darned nice dogs though. Couldn't ask for a better tempered dog for my kids. Kind of like my Arabs. Of course, it sounds like someone is being murdered in my yard on a daily basis. Thank God for understanding neighbors.
