What colors can dogs see?

Because dogs' eyes only have two types of cones (just 20 percent of the cones in human eyes), their color spectrum is limited to shades of gray, brown, yellow and blue. This is called dichromatic vision, which is similar to humans who experience red-green color blindness.

DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN'T SPREAD COLD WATER WITH AN OVERHEATED DOG OR PUT A WET TOWEL ON ITS BACK? !! ️. HERE'S THE INSTRUCTION OF WHAT YOU SHOULD DO.. Animal lovers, never make the mistake of pouring cold water overheated dog or putting a wet towel on its back. You will see the opposite effect. Due to cold, the veins contract and due to high temperatures (above 42 degrees), the proteins in the blood collide, causing the blood to become thick and tight. Due to the combination of these two factors, blood stops entering the heart and organs fail one by one due to lack of oxygen. The result is a very slow but very painful death. If you try to help an overheated dog in this way, it will die anyway. First give him lukewarm water to drink, then cool his feet and chest/belly with a wet towel. Then put the dog in the shade on a wet towel!!! Sharing is highly desirable because time and time again we see footage of overheated dogs exiting a car with water spilled on their backs.

Puppies and a**l glands, help them help themselves. Prepare foods that encourage the release because my pup is p**ping fine but having some issues prior to performing the act. I'm putting the proper additions in her diet to encourage easier release of the a**l glands and p**p. Wish me luck.

You may have heard that it’s okay to express your dog’s a**l glands manually if they’re impacted, but it’s not advisable without veterinary supervision. Dogs should be able to empty their sacs naturally. Sometimes we can help the process by adding some high-fiber foods to their diet. Impacte...

Please! Every dog is NOT friendly, and they can be leash reactive (meaning even if they are normally friendly, they can be more protective of themselves and their owner while leashed! In addition, dogs shouldn’t meet face to face, staring at each other!). Please keep your dog on a leash and respect others who have their dogs leashed! All dogs should also have good manners on leashes…no barking, no weaving around you, and no pulling…it’s safer for them, yourselves and the others around you!
