Why are dogs so good at understanding our tears?

Curious about how dogs know & react when you cry?

Dogs are more in tune with our emotions than we might think. They can pick up on our feelings & often respond to our tears in surprising ways.

Here’s why:

• Emotional Sensitivity: Dogs can sense human emotions through body language & vocal tones, helping them understand when something is wrong.

• Social Creatures: Being pack animals, dogs have a natural instinct to comfort their humans during tough times, showing empathy when they notice sadness.

• Learning Through Experience: Over time, dogs learn to recognize signs of distress, making them more likely to respond when they see you upset.

Knowing how dogs perceive our emotions can help strengthen your bond. Their ability to connect with our feelings can make tough moments a little easier, reminding us that we’re never truly alone.

5 diseases dogs can smell on humans.

Many a dog parent gets a sense that their pup knows when they are not feeling well?

That can be due to them sensing their dog parent is unhappy. Also their amazing sense of smell allows them to detect certain diseases just by sniffing.

Here are five diseases that dogs can smell on humans:

1. Cancer: Dogs can detect various types of cancer by sensing specific chemicals released by tumors, often before symptoms appear.

2. Parkinson's Disease: They may be able to identify Parkinson's by recognizing unique scents associated with the condition, even in its early stages.

3. Diabetes: Dogs can sense changes in blood sugar levels through our breath & sweat, alerting their owners when something is wrong.

4. Migraines: Some dogs can detect the onset of migraines by sensing changes in their owner’s body chemistry before the pain begins.

5. Narcolepsy: Certain dogs can recognize signs of narcolepsy, helping to alert their owners to impending sleep episodes.

Dogs’ capacity to detect health issues means they can be more than just pets. They can also be valuable partners in our wellbeing.

🥗What to know about your dog’s gut microbiome.

OK, firstly, what is the Gut Microbiome?

The microbiome is a community of trillions of tiny organisms, including bacteria, fungi, & viruses, that live in your dog’s digestive system.

These organisms play a crucial role in digestion, immune function, & overall health. Understanding your dog's microbiome can lead to a healthier, happier pup.

Here are some important things to keep in mind:

• Digestive Health: A balanced gut microbiome helps your dog digest food properly, absorb nutrients, & maintain a healthy weight.

• Immune System Support: A healthy gut is essential for your dog's immune system, enabling them to fight off illnesses & stay strong.

• Behavior & Mood: Believe it or not, the gut can influence your dog's mood & behavior. A happy gut can contribute to a happier pup.

Taking care of your dog's gut health is essential. You can support their microbiome by feeding them a balanced diet, providing probiotics, & ensuring they get plenty of exercise.

By focusing on their gut health, you’re helping them live their best life, filled with tail wags & joyful moments.
