According to research presented to the American Psychological Association, an average dog is as intelligent as a two year old child. They can count up to five and can perform simple mathematical calculations. You know what’s more interesting? They can understand up to 250 word and gestures!

Here are 10 things that You Never Knew About Your Dog.

1) Everything is not black or white for the dogs. Dogs have two cones in their eyes, which enables them to see colours on the scale of blue and yellow.

2) Dogs’ nose prints are as unique as a human’s finger prints and can be used to accurately identify them.

3) Dogs can recognise the smell of a range of organic compounds, which enables them to diagnose signs of cancer, diabetes and epileptic seizures in human beings.

4) Service dogs know the difference between work and play time. When their harness is on, they know its duty time, and when it’s taken off, they immediately become playful and energetic.

5) A dog’s heart beats up to 120 times per minute, or 50% faster than the average human heartbeat of 80 times per minute
