Dog games help you learn about dogs and puppies

Do you have a dog? If you do then you know your dog knows every trivial detail of your daily routine at home. He knows your every move, every bite you eat, and your every bodily function. Also, thanks to his super duper smellivision he probably knows a whole lot more about your time apart from him than you ever thought possible.

To be fair, you probably know your dog pretty well too. I know exactly what my dog is thinking before he has even fully formed the thought let alone acted upon it. Yet, with all that we know about the dogs in our lives, how much do we really know about dogs? Are you ready to test your canine acumen with this fun dog trivia quiz? Then let us check out some dog trivia questions and answers below. Don't forget I have many more fun pet quizzes as well as other quizzes about animals.

Dog facts

According to tests made at the Institute for the Study of Animal Problems in Washington, D.C., dogs and cats, just like people are either right-handed or left-handed-or rather favor either their right or left paws.

Even though jackals may look like alien life forms, they are Canids just like dogs and wolves. The only difference is that they have one more pair of chromosomes.

Due to their breeding, dogs such as Bulldogs and Pitbulls have fewer facial expressions and so are often misinterpreted by other dogs which leads to fights. Poor misunderstood pooches. Most dogs have about 100 different facial expressions, most of them made with their ears.

The fear of dogs and/or rabies is called Cynophobia because "kyon" is dog in Greek (photos is fear in Greek, FYI).

Of the more than 300 breeds of dogs that exist worldwide, the American Kennel Club recognizes 167.

A few more dog facts

Apparently some argument can be made that the goat might have been the first domesticated animal in some areas, but the dog is Numero Uno for most evidence of early man!

Ralph and Sam, the Looney Tune wolf and sheepdog cartoon character adversaries, would punch a time-clock between their bouts. They would punch in at the beginning of each shift and out at the end as well as for their lunch break.

The Beatles son "Martha My Dear" was written by Paul McCartney about his sheepdog Martha.

Domestic dogs vary widely in appearance and size, but despite these differences all breeds of the domestic dog are essentially identical in anatomy. However, apparently not all breeds have a dewclaw and this why the average number of bones in the skeleton varies!

The dog on the Cracker Jack box is named Bingo.
