There are many many different breeds of dogs, from pedigree breeds to cross-breeds. Each and every breed is different and suited to different homes and owners. To find out more, please visit the Dogs Trust website https://mail.elcschool.org.uk/exchweb/bin/redir.asp?URL=http://www.dogstrust.org.uk/
- It can be difficult to tell when a dog is pregnant, her tummy may swell, she may produce milk and she might make a nest in her bedding. The only way to be sure, however, is to take the dog to the vet, who can confirm the pregnancy.
- When puppies are first born, they feed from their mother’s milk. When they get a little older, they will eat four small meals a day. Their stomachs are too small to cope with large amounts. In full adulthood, a dog should eat 2 meals a day. This can be dry or wet dog food.
- Dogs can see in colour! However, a dog’s most powerful sense is his sense of smell; their eyesight is not as good as a human’s eyesight.
- A dog’s lungs work in the same way as a human’s lungs.
