A few facts about dogs

• Dogs have highly developed senses – including an incredibly well-developed sense of smell, far superior to humans. They can also see better than us in dark and dim light, as well as hearing in ultrasound and detecting sounds up to four times quieter than humans can hear!
• Dogs use a range of methods to communicate – including scent information, sounds such as whines, whimpers, growls, barks and howls, and also body language using their body, face, tail, ears and limbs.
• Dogs are athletic – the fastest recorded speed for a greyhound is 42mph, similar to that of a mounted racehorse!
• Dogs are highly social – many dogs enjoy the company of other dogs, but they’ll also form strong social bonds with humans, becoming very attached to particular people in their lives.
