A typical dog’s nose is at least a thousand times more sensitive to scent than or normal human nose. Would you be surprised to learn a pooch smells the past, present and future?

But the average dog’s nose is 10,000 times more sensitive to odors than the human nose.

Their olfactory system is remarkable! Their powerful noses can even recognize distinct scents even in a place as large as an enclosed stadium!

The moist, spongy canine nose is merely the gateway into a remarkable master machine which can detect smells in concentrations one hundred-millionth of what we humans require to smell something, and then transmute them into immensely dimensional and useful information about the world. So magnificent is the dog’s olfactory brawn — including the ability to sniff out skin, breast, bladder, and lung cancers with an astounding degree of accuracy and to literally smell fear — that to our primitive human perception it appears like nothing short of magic.

Next time you see your pooch lifting or lowering his head, or sniffing at something that has caught his attention, you might want to think about the miracle that is his inquiring nose.

Perhaps he is in the process of sniffing out a vital clue in a puzzling mystery! Or maybe he’s just remembering where that piece of pasta fell last week on the kitchen floor!
