Here I give you daily dog facts because that’s what comes out of this page 😀 If you have any dog facts, please share them! 😀

FACT 1
Great Pyrenees can have up to 6 toes on their hind foot. Other polydactyl breeds include the Norwegian Lundehund, which holds the record for the dog breeds with the most toes, also with 6 toes on their feet, but instead of these extra toes presenting themselves has dewclaws, they are on the main foot. These dogs can also have 8 pads on any one foot. Both dogs are bred to work in mountainous areas, and these extra toes provide extra grip!

A couple of dog jobs!
1 – Dogs are excellent members of anti-poaching units, and due to their heightened sense of smell, they can track down poachers, helping us save endangered species of animals
2 – Pigs used to be the ones to smell truffles, but they would always eat them, so many places have specially trained dogs to help
3 – SAR dogs (Search and Rescue Dogs) are trained to pick up absolutely any human scent, from a whiff of a human’s breath or the scent of skin cells. SAR dog. Different SAR dogs specialise in different fields, and they include air-scent dogs, water-search dogs, avalanche dogs, disaster dogs and more
