Think you know everything there is to know about your pooch? You have no idea. Here are 10 really interesting things you didn’t know about your dog.
1. Yawning: Dogs yawn when they are tired, but it is also a sign that they are bored.
2. Bad Behavior: Dogs act up when there is a storm on the way, they can hear, smell and feel one coming long before we can.
3. Drinking: Dogs don’t just lap up water indiscriminately — they form the backs of their tongues into little water cups.
4. Hugs: Dogs don’t really like hugging, in the animal kingdom putting your limb over another animal signifies dominance.
5. Nose: Dogs nose prints are as unique as human fingerprints.
6. Digging: When dogs dig after pooing they are not burying anything, they are marking their territory using glands in their paws.
7. Peeing: Male dogs lift their legs when they pee as a show of dominance.
8. Intelligence: Boarder Collies and Poodles are thought to be the most intelligent breeds.
9. Smell: Your dog’s wet nose detects scent by absorbing the water droplets that carry smell.
10. Hearing: Eighteen muscles move your dog’s ears around independently from one another.
