Dogs love to smell EVERYTHING. And it's part of their instincts as well. They're getting to know their territory, other animals in the territory, they can smell threats even. Just wait til your dog starts wanting to taste everything as well. YUCK!
So what do you do? Well, you train the dog. Dogs don't instinctively know to stay to one side of you. You have to train them to do that. They don't know to not strain against the leash. They don't know to not chase after that pretty bicycle. These are things you have to train it to do. Time, patience, and dog treats will be necessary!
Just remember, this is a natural behavior that the dog is born with. It's still a "gud n cute' dog. :)
