If dogs have such a great sense of smell ,why do they have to get so close to each others bums to smell it?
just curious
Answers:
Yes they must get vast info through the scent of each dog. Great question.
I think its meant to be a sort of "Hello" like shaking hands!
That's alright my friend, they're "just curious" too. They get so close cos it just smells so good. And it's good you take notice of this kind of thing.
The smell is more intense and more enjoyable closer up. Try it!
lol It must be some kind of identity
At the base of a dogs bum is what is called Anal Glands.
These glands are like a dna imprint for dogs.
Dogs will sniff the bum not to smell for poo but to smell the dogs dna, it is like a record, hey I know you, 'I remember'.
Because when they get closer, they only smell that they smell is the smell of that particular animal. If they don't ,they will smell other smelles that come from the air. Not exactly what they are looking for. Because they need to be sure what they need to smell.
Sent glands
also dogs smell in two ways up close an far away
If you watch closley enough there are outher parts that get
sniffed as well. ears an coat are two more.
Cuz they are tryin to figure out the breed and if it is a girl or boy
Two answers. Either their smelling is so good, they might mistake the smell of their own butt for another's. Or they have to have their nose touch the other dog's butt for the introduction to be proper.
heheheeeee! they want to make sure they get a good whiff!
