How do dogs smell?

Their sense of smell could be 10,000 to 100,000 times more powerful than ours, allowing them to "see" things that are invisible to humans. Here is how dogs smell... 🐶

    Amazing. That is probably how and why our senior dog (with failing eyesight & hearing) gets around safely in the house and garden. ❤️❤️

    My golden found a ball under 4" of snow in the woods that she or I have never been before. A friend that lived there said it was her son's ball that he lost while playing as a boy, and was now 25 years old. I miss my golden. Was with me 24/7 for 12 years.

    That's why I love these beautiful animals more than humans.

    All of God's creatures have abilities that very few of us even know about or pay attention to. That is why it is irritating when people dress their dogs or cats in clothes, because it affects their senses through the animals guard hairs. Some actually think it hurts them. That is why cats will fall down flat and lethargic, and dogs react anxiously when clothing is put on them.

    Common Atlantic EEls have the keenest sense of smell of all known creatures.

    I have always wondered when a dog 🐶 gets lost why can it not find its way 🔙 🏡 if they have such a great sense of smell.
