The Science Behind the Sniff:
Dogs experience the world primarily through smell. While humans have about 6 million scent receptors, dogs can have up to 300 million. That’s why their sense of smell is incredibly powerful.
They also have a special organ called the vomeronasal organ, which helps them detect pheromones—chemical signals that provide detailed information about people and other animals.
When your dog sniffs certain areas, they’re gathering data like:
Age and biological sex
Emotional state (stress, calm, excitement)
