Surprise with 7 weird things a dog can smell

by Janne Abir Marketing
Dogs are known to have the intelligence and sharpest sense of smell in the world, 10,000 times higher than humans. Here are some of the cool things that can save humans that only dogs can discover.



1. Blood sugar changes

Studies recognize that dogs can detect a decrease in blood sugar levels. They can determine this when smelling changes in smell in human sweat. This ability is very important for a diabetic dog owner. Studies show that dogs can also analyze changes in behavior.

So as soon as your “pet doctor” smells changes or that you are abnormally sleepy, pay attention. Your dog may show signs of stress and will try to get your attention.

2. Cancer

Cancer causes our cells to behave differently from normal and grow tumors, the scientists explain. The damaged cells make a specific protein that the dog can smell. Research has shown that dogs can detect lung cancer by breathing and prostate or bladder cancer through the smell of urine.

The researchers hope that in the near future dogs will be trained to be a powerful tool in cancer screening efforts. Detecting early stage cancer significantly improves the patient's chances of survival.

3. Identification

While most of us perceive our surroundings by observing, dogs use smells for identification. A dog's nose can distinguish the smell of each person. Furthermore, experts claim that dogs can recognize a familiar person or place even when the smell is mixed with perfume or after contact with another person. What's more, well-trained dogs can even distinguish the "smell" of identical twins! This ability is widely used in investigating and searching for missing persons.

4. Seizure seizures

Scientists realized that dogs could detect an impending epileptic seizure 45 minutes beforehand. It is believed that dogs can sense a particular smell in the face of an emergency. As soon as it is aware of the danger, it will try to get your attention by barking. If the owner falls into convulsions, the dog will always be by the side to protect the owner.

5. The smell of another dog

Dogs send each other "messages" through hormones that can be found in their urine, skin, feathers and feces. So if you visit a friend who also owns a pet, your dog will know all about that animal! Don't be surprised when your furry friend constantly approaches you and sniffs. The message will include information about the breed, size, health status and other characteristics.

6. Know the first "pregnant" boss

With their super-sensitive sense of smell, dogs can smell hormone changes in a woman's body, as well as sense the change from their gait to their emotions while they are pregnant. .

It's interesting isn't that the 'person' first found out that the baby about to greet inside the womb was a dog, not a human!

7. Natural disaster forecast

Since ancient times, animals have been closer to nature than humans. And today, observations prove that dogs can smell even the slightest changes in the air, predicting a storm or other natural disaster.

Dogs are close friends of man

When we adopt a dog, we will have a companion for morning jogging and keep the house safe. Moreover, scientists have proven that dogs are the best friends for children. A dog in the family stimulates children to be more active, caring for others and animals, and even faster reading.
