Tail Talk
Dogs communicate a lot through their tails. A wagging tail doesn’t always mean they’re happy—it depends on the speed and direction of the wag. A slow wag might indicate they’re feeling unsure, while a fast wag usually means they’re excited.
Doggy Dreams
Ever noticed your dog twitching or making noises while they sleep? That’s because dogs dream, just like humans! They go through similar sleep stages and might be dreaming about chasing squirrels or playing with their favorite toy.
Super Swimmers
Many dogs are natural swimmers, and some breeds are particularly known for their love of water. The Labrador Retriever, for instance, has webbed feet that make them excellent swimmers. Just another reason they love to play fetch in the water!
Paws for Thought
The pads on a dog’s paws are not just for protection—they also help with temperature regulation. Dogs sweat through their paw pads, so you’ll often see them licking their paws to cool down.
