Pet Tip
Dog is a Crotch Sniffer – Pet tip 245
Most dog owners are aware that dog noses are extremely sensitive. This is due to the quantity of olfactory or ‘smell’ receptors in a dog’s nose. Whereas humans have around five million olfactory receptors, dogs have two hundred and twenty million. This makes their noses exponentially more sensitive than a human’s. Most times a dog’s sensitive nose works to our benefit. All kinds of dogs are used as service dogs to help humans find missing people, sniff out explosives, drugs etc. They can smell people coming from quite a distance and alert us to their presence. There are some embarrassing occasions however, when a dog’s nose is just too sensitive from our human perspective. Most notably this occurs when dogs try to sniff humans in their private areas.
This behaviour is a common one in dogs and equally common is the fact that it upsets most dog owners. The reason some dogs sniff at a human’s private parts is the same reason they sniff the private parts of other dogs. We know that when they smell other dogs in this way they can tell the sex, rank (is the dog more dominant or submissive) age and other information about the dog.

I love everything, honestly, EVERYTHING. Dogs, cats, people and even pidgeons are my playmates! I only have two speeds, Super warp turbo, and off. My favorite snacks are cucumbers and broccoli (mmmmm yummy.. but not too much broccoli, or else mom says my farts stink EWWWWW) I love swimming, and made my first trip to the St Laurence this summer and spent the entire week swimming! Mom think's I'm part kangaroo, because I can attain a 4 foot vertical jump!! I love the snow, except when my paws get too cold. I don't love the heat too much, and usually spend the days lying in mom's shower (the marble is nice and cool :) ) Despite my small size, I can rip apart any toy you give me, so watch out :P
