    A male dog urinates with one leg up to better mark his territory. The scent can tell him many things, including size and health. The size is judged by the height of the stain. Male dogs although, do not actually need to lift their leg. :)

    The least intelligent breeds, at least according to one expert, were the Borzoi, the Chow Chow, the Bulldog, the Basenji and the Afghan Hound.It’s likely that these breeds are quite intelligent.They may not have as much motivation to do well on doggy intelligence tests as some other breeds.
    That's what it is so don't get offended alright. ;) Please "Like" my posts if you've learn even a little bit. Thanks. :D

    The world’s hairiest dog may be the Old English Sheepdog or the Komondor. These breeds have long hair from stem to stern.

    At one time the Collie was considered a vicious breed of dog, perhaps because the Scots who kept the dogs were considered a vicious people.It wasn’t until Queen Victoria became a fan of the breed in the 19th century that Collies became popular with the public.

    Chocolates is harmful for dogs. Researchers found out that chocolate contain theobromine which is similar to caffeine. Theobromine is toxic when a dog ingest 100-150 milligrams of it per kilogram of body weight.
    It's not a big problem for those who own big dogs but please keep your chocolate basket out of reach specially if you have small dogs like me.

    That is actually possible in humans too....there have been rare cases of twins at different gestational ages, therefore fertilized at different times, therefore could have different fathers.

    Hmmm… I wonder if dogs are aware of that fact because they don’t like sweets. Or at least my dogs don’t like sweets. :p

    My dogs don't like sweets too. Let us be thankful that their taste buds are not designed to eat sweets to prevent them from these kinds of harm.

WOW! Could you ever imagine Lassie as being vicious? Have you seen the Bulldog that skateboards? OMG! It is sooo funny! Tyson and Tillman, look them up on youtube! You will never get over it! I think it is Tyson that snowboards, surfs and skateboards! :eek:

    Dogs don't like sweets? That's not exactly true. I took over a Poodle when it was already about 8 months old. She loved sweets. Even fruits. Apparently her previous owner had a sweet tooth and shared everything with her.
