HEALTHY PAWS
| |
The Dogster website has a good article listing 8 tips to ensuring yo  ur dogs paws stay healthy throughout the year. You can read more here. |
| SCENTING | |
 The PBS Newshour website has published an interesting article that goes "inside the extratordinary nose of a search-and-rescue dog." While scientists have figured out how sight works, our sense of smell remains something of a mystery.
Here are some of the highlights:
- Dogs smell "in stereo" through a labyrinth of passageways that "filter air into different parts of the nose."
- Some of these "turbinates" send air to be warmed (making scents easier to distinguish), others separate odor chemicals by "weight and solubility."
- Dogs use the outer portions of the nose to "sample" the air in different directions allowing dogs to distinguish the freshness of an odor.
- Slits on the side allow dogs to take twice as many breaths as we do in the same amount of time.
- Dogs circle the outside of a scent area to figure out where the odor is coming from.
