Fun Facts About Dogs
Dogs have become one of the most
beloved pets on the planet.
Their loyalty and obvious affection
for mankind are legendary.
Beyond the emotional satisfaction they
give to us, they display some amazing
and interesting qualities.
Here are just some of them.
The Body Language of a Dog's Tail
Dogs express themselves through body
language the same as people do.
That little tail on the rear of
the dog speaks volumes.
Dogs use their tails, whether
consciously or unconsciously, to
“talk” to humans, other dogs, and
other animals.
If the tail is stiff and straight,
it usually means that the dog is
expressing aggression.
A wagging tail may not mean
that a dog is happy.
If it wags to the right, it
probably means the dog is happy.
Studies show, however, that if it wags
to the left, it means he is frightened.
If a dog is wagging his tail slowly
back and forth, and his body is
rigidly pointing in your direction,
stay out of his space.
The Wonders of a Dog's Nose
A dog's sense of smell is more
than 10,000 times greater than
that of man.
The mucous on the surface of a
dog's nose helps him to define a
scent, as well as helping him to
determine the direction it is
coming from.
There are some smells that are
undetectable to man but can be
discerned by a dog.
This is why dogs are trained to
sniff out drugs, human scent and
blood, insects, and even the
presence of bombs.
Recent studies have also shown
that dogs can smell cancer in the
body of a human.
The Homing Instinct in a Dog
There are amazing true stories about
dogs that became lost or separated from
their owners and literally crossed
thousands of miles to successfully find
their owners again.
It remains a scientific mystery as to how
dogs can do this, but one theory that has
been suggested is that dogs have a homing
instinct that is sensitive to the earth's
magnetic fields.
They are able to map out
landmarks, scents and sounds by
a kind of an inner compass.
The interesting thing is that
researchers have discovered that if
magnets are attached to a dog's
body, they lose their sense of
direction.
The Perfect Weather Dog
Dog's ears contain more than
eighteen muscles, and a dog can
hear in both low and high
frequency.
When a storm is on its way, a dog can
hear low rumblings before we can.
He is more sensitive to a drop in
barometric pressure that signals a
storm is on its way.
It has also been suggested that a
dog may be able to smell the
metallic scent given off by
lightning.
Some dogs are highly fearful of
storms. They will bark, shake,
hide, or soil the carpet.
If your dog is overly frightened by
storms, experts say you should
command him to sit and stay and
then reward him for staying calm
with a treat.
There are also medications your
veterinarian can give you to help
calm your dog through his anxious
episodes.
A dog is more than man's best friend.
Dogs have proven invaluable,
because of their unique physiology, in
helping man in a number of useful
ways.
Are you thinking about getting a
beautiful portrait of your pet?
An artist by profession, Miri's
paintings make a lasting keepsake of
your furry or feathered friend.
