Barley, a dog, trots with great enthusiasm down a college hallway, so much so that her leash is pulled taut.

Barley, a dog, trots with great enthusiasm down a college hallway, so much so that her leash is pulled taut.

Barley is generally very excited to investigate novel environments, but she seems to consider indoor spaces to be more austere than the outdoors where she normally walks. As such, whereas her walks outdoors involve stopping to sniff things every couple dozen feet, Barley doesn’t really slow down in a hallway. If only the janitorial staff was a little less diligent, Barley would no doubt have a lot more olfactory hotspots at which to pause and ponder.
