Canines Travel to Chattanooga, Tennessee
Chattanooga has a way of surprising you in the best way. Luie Boone would like it to be officially noted that this city has range. History, scenery, patios, trails... and, yes, plenty of good sniffing opportunities. He'd never go somewhere without making sure that was the case. Why have a big sniffer if not to sniff?
