We all know our dog is an amazing creature, with bigger brains than we give them credit for and a bigger heart than any other creature on Earth. There's a lot of amazing things they can do, including boost endorphins and oxytocin in our brains, but not just that! They are athletes, strong men, dancers, magicians and more. Their bodies, big and small, are capable of a lot of amazing feats. Here's just five amazing physical feats they can do!
One. Super Sniffing.
A dog’s nose is anywhere from 10,000 to 100,000 times more sensitive than ours. That means they can detect tiny traces of scent we’d never even notice—like that one crumb you dropped under the couch in 2019. Dogs are trained to detect everything from explosives and missing people to cancer cells and low blood sugar. Their sniffing skills are truly legendary.
Two. Time Travel.
Okay, they can't actually travel back in time, but they can see (or smell) back in time. Dogs can detect how recently a scent was left, meaning they can literally “smell time.” A scent trail that's 30 minutes old smells different to them than one that’s 5 hours old. This ability helps them track prey, find missing people, and even figure out who walked past your house this morning. Their nose is basically a scent-based time machine.
Three. Super Memory.
Some dogs, like the famous Border Collie "Chaser," have been trained to understand more than 1,000 words. While most dogs might not hit four figures, your dog can still learn dozens—even hundreds—of commands, names, and cues. So yes, they definitely know what “walk” means (and probably “vet,” too).
Four. Magnetism (in theory).
We're not talking about their magnetic personalities, though that's another superpower of theirs. some experts believe they use Earth’s magnetic field to navigate their space, which could lead them back home. They also rely on scent trails and familiar landmarks. Lost dog stories that end with tail-wagging reunions are no coincidence. Dogs have an incredible sense of direction. Better than us humans our Google Maps!
Five. Super (Jaw) Strength.
Don’t let those slobbery kisses, playful nibbles and soft eyes fool you — your dog’s jaw is seriously strong. Some breeds, like Rottweilers or Kangal Shepherds, have bite forces that exceed 700 PSI (pounds per square inch)—that’s stronger than a lion’s! Even smaller dogs pack surprising power, especially when they're chewing through bones, toys, or furniture. This impressive strength evolved from their wild ancestors, who needed to crush bones and tear meat to survive.
Nowadays, their food is easier to chew, including Pawganic's raw pet meals. Nevertheless, we include chunky bits of bone to clean their teeth and exercise their jaws.
