🤔 Interesting Facts

Sniff Mode: Always On

Did you know that dogs can breathe in and out at the same time?

When sniffing, dogs create a continuous airflow - pulling new scents in through slits in their nostrils, while exhaling through separate areas. This allows them to sniff almost non-stop without losing the scent trail.
