Out of the hundreds of different dog breeds, each with their own personalities and characteristics only one thing is certain - Our dog pals are as interesting as they are adorable. Here are some fascinating tidbits you might not already know about our canine companions:
1. As loving as our furry friends can be, they don’t like hugs as much as other animals. Dogs interpret putting a limb over another animal as a sign of dominance.
2. There is a high pitched whistle heard only by dogs in the Beatles song “A Day in The Life”. Paul McCartney put it in for his Shetland sheepdog to enjoy.
3. Have you ever pondered why your dog’s paws smell like corn chips? Dogs pick up all kinds of microorganisms on their paws because they are always in contact with the ground. When dogs sweat through their feet, the combination of moisture and bacteria releases the “Frito feet” odor which is essentially dog b.o.
4. Dogs can count up to 5 and perform simple mathematical calculations.
5. Some stray dogs in Russia figured out how to navigate the subway system so that they can travel to more populated areas to search for food.
