Dogs actually see the world through their noses

Hi, Bob.Morning, Kelly. The tulips looks great.Have you ever wondered how your dog experiences the world?Here's what she sees.Not terribly interesting.But what she smells,that's a totally different story.And it begins at her wonderfully developed nose.As your dog catches the first hints of fresh air,her nose's moist, spongy outside helps capture any scents the breeze carries.The ability to smell separately with each nostril,smelling in stereo,helps to determine the direction of the smell's source so that within the first few moments of sniffing,the dog starts to become aware of not just what kind of things are out there but also where they're located.As air enters the nose,a small fold of tissue divides it into two separate folds,one for breathing and one just for smelling.
