Do dogs dream? If you look
at your dog while it's sleeping, sometimes you'll see its eyes move
and twitch under its eyelids. Humans do this too, and we definitely
dream. So researchers are almost positive that dogs have dreams too.
But guess what? No one knows what dogs dream about. Maybe the next
time your dog wakes up from a dream, you can ask it! |

Dogs are not born knowing
the words Sit, Down, Stay. You can
you shout the command as many times as you like
getting louder and louder ...... the dog will still not know
what it means. |

Dogs naturally have a wonderful sense of smell. They
have many more sensory 'smelling" cells than a man's 5,000,000. A
Dachshund has 125,000,000, a Fox Terrier 147,000,000 and an Alsatian
has 220,000,000. |

Irish Wolfhounds rank as the largest dog, and
Chihuahuas as the smallest dog. The St. Bernard is the
heaviest dog and other breeds range in size between these extremes |

Dogs cannot see as well as humans and are considered
color blind. A dog sees objects first by their movement, second by
their brightness, and third by their shape. |

Dogs hearing is very acute.
They can register sounds of 35,000 vibrations a second (compared to
our 20,000 and a cat's 25,000). |

The oldest reliable age recorded for a dog is 29 years,
5 months for a Queensland "heeler" called Bluey in Victoria,
Australia. The average dog lives to around 15 years of age |

And

|

He is your friend, your
partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his
leader. He will be yours, faithful and true to the last beat of his
heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.
