If there was a cat, there is a dog. It's not fair if I just talked about cats without also discussing the matter of eternal enemies of this cat. Although dogs are often branded as unclean and full of ferocious animals, but these creatures are actually very sweet and friendly. They are very sensitive and most faithful friend of man. Friends may be treacherous, boyfriend may be cheating, but the dog has never betrayed the old
But a dog, especially a dog race, requires patience, love, and a thick wallet. Even the cost of 'his operasional' per month can be greater than the cost of living masters. Ok, let's see interesting facts about these friendly creatures nan funny:
1. Dogs (canis lupus familiaris) is a carnivorous mammal that has been experienced since the domestication of wolves 15,000 years ago or may have since 100,000 years ago based on genetic evidence of the discovery of fossils and DNA testing. But you know, it turns out dogs are considered to have the ancestors of the wolf (canis lupus) is still unsubstantiated. Although DNA testing is able to read the possibility that direction, but the history of the dog we know today is still an estimate to find the facts and concrete evidence. Complicating the process of domestication and the many ramifications of the various genealogy complicates the process of discovery evidence.
2. Do you know, it turns out the dog has nearly 220 million olfactory cells that are sensitive to odors. The breadth approximately as wide as a handkerchief, a very large when compared to the human olfactory cells. For comparison, humans have only 5 million olfactory cells that occupy

broad width of a postage stamp. Some types of dogs are bred to race even deliberately puppy born with a better sense of smell. According to the results of the study, dogs can distinguish two types of odors, the smell in the air particles are spread from person or object, and the smell of the soil particles that can still be detected after some time.Characteristics of two types of particles seem to smell quite different. Scent particles in the air easily lost, but it may be so clear and not mixed with other odors, while the smell of the soil particles are relatively more permanent. Dogs should be encouraged to do it over and over again and be careful, because the smell is embedded in the ground easily contaminated by other odors.
3. Be careful in giving food to your dog. Apparently there are some foods that should not be given to dogs. This is a list of these foods: chocolate, onions (including onion), grapes, raisins, some types of chewing gum, and artificial sweeteners. Bone that has been boiled should never be given to dogs, especially chicken bones. Warming is changing the nature of the chemical and physical properties of bone that results can not be chewed dog bones correctly. Bones broken into sharp pieces and digestion harm the dog. Dogs are generally very interested in sweetness caused by some foods and certain substances such as carbolic acid, oil, mosquito spray, and the like.
4. Dogs are social animals, but the dog's personality and behavior can vary depending on each race. In addition, personality and behavior of dogs depends on the treatment received from dog owners and those who communicate with the dog. Dogs that receive violence from the owner or by deliberately starving dog can be quick-tempered and dangerous. That's because, after all dogs are animals descended from wolves, so it is still attached to its wild character. It must be cautious in treating it.
