\n Dogs never cease to amaze us - from their way of drinking to their unique nose prints. Discover five extraordinary facts about dogs<\/strong> that even the biggest dog lover doesn't already know. Fun to share with friends or during a walk at the dog field!\n <\/p>\n

1. Dogs drink with the back of their tongue<\/h2>\n

\n While it may appear that dogs simply lick up water, they actually use the back of their tongue to \"scoop\" the water in. A clever, efficient movement that makes for their unique drinking style!\n <\/p>\n

2. The St. Bernard escaped extinction<\/h2>\n

\"St.<\/p>\n

\n The beloved St. Bernard<\/strong> was nearly extinct after heavy snowstorms between 1816 and 1818.

3. Every dog nose is unique<\/h2>\n

\n A dog's nose print is as unique as a human's fingerprint. No two dogs have the same nasal patterns - and some countries are even considering using these prints for identification (source: All Pet News<\/a>).\n <\/p>\n

4. The phrase \"three dog night\" comes from surviving in the cold<\/h2>\n

\n In Australian Aboriginal culture, a \"three dog night\" meant an extremely cold night in which one needed three dogs to stay warm. Nowadays, it sounds mostly like something we would love to do even without freezing temperatures - cozy, snug and full of love (source: PBS<\/a>).\n <\/p>\n

5. Dogs don't feel guilty - but they do feel jealous<\/h2>\n

\"Dog<\/p>\n

\n That \"guilty\" face of your dog after a stolen cookie? Pure deception! Research shows that dogs do not experience guilt like humans, but do jealous<\/strong> can be - especially if their owner is giving another dog attention (source: Mirror<\/a>).\n <\/p>\n

In conclusion<\/h2>\n
