THE MUZZLE

  If we could spread his nasal mucosa on his body, it would cover a great deal of it. It is about 180 times longuer than ours. We possess about 5 to 30 millions of olfactory cell, even though the dog possess between 220 to 300 millions of it. This wonderfull smell allows him to percieve far around a lot of informations notably thanks to the pheromones. These chimical substances are in urine, excrement and sweat or are elaborated by specialized glands. They allow him to mark out his territory, sexuality, and to know when he will be attacked. We are not surprise that he is so precious in search of missing or vanished persons, by exemple in avalanche.

The smell is the most developed sense of the dog. To such a point that during windy days the dog is often very nervous.

Actually he doesn't smell anymore the odours and is desorientated.

although the dog doesn't catch cold as we do, but it appen, notably in spring, that he sneezes.

You can put in his noose some drops of saline solution to clean it. Use a small dropper to avoid to afraid your dog.

If you read french and the smell of the dog interesting you, you might buy the book of Joseph ORTEGA "FLAIR DU CHIEN Pistage et détection" AUX ÉDITIONS DU SURANT 39160 SAINT-AMOUR


You can find saline solution in chemist's shop or drugstore.
