dog information and pretty interesting facts (earth data)
Howdy ! This is ENZO again.
I did a lot of research and gathered a lot of interesting data on
Earth Dogs and the History of CBD on Earth.
It was kind of difficult because in many countries, even if you own a dog, there's no system to register them. But using my statistical analysis programs, I was able to obtain very close numbers. Read on . . . . . . . . NANO NANO
Earth Dog Population
Earth's Dog Population is about 900M (900,000,000).
But it's really sad because more than 75% are Free Range Dogs. Meaning that they are either Wild, Feral, or Disowned & Unowned Town or Village Dogs.
The 7 Countries with the most Pet Dogs
- USA : 70 Million
- China : 27 Million
- Russia : 13 Million
- Japan : 12 Million
- Phillipines : 11 Million
- India : 10 Million
- Argentina : 9 Million
Woof America !
America's Dogs and ...
This is very interesting and a bit nuts, I think :
36% of Americans give their Dog Christmas presents !
27% of Americans take their Dog to a professional photographer !
and . . .
there are 550,000 pet Snakes in America ! Yes, Snakes !
Can you believe that ! That's NUTS !
Deafness in Dalmatians
Let's go on a 'SNIFFARI'
We dalmatians have deafness that is quite common amongst us. This deafness is linked to a gene involved in our coloration. About 15-30% of us dalmatians are affected, and about 5% of us are deaf in both ears. So we are at greater risk of injury, like in traffic accidents.
How we Earth Dogs See

Despite the popular belief that we earth dogs are colorblind and can only see different shades of gray, we can actually see blue and yellow. So, we aren’t actually colorblind, but rather just ‘spectrum-challenged.’

While humans navigate the world around us primarily through sight, we earth dogs experience a unique, four-dimensional map made entirely of scent. So for us dogs, sniffing isn’t just a hobby, it’s our primary method of gathering data, processing emotions, and communicating with the world around us !
I have the Longest Ears
My name is Lou, I'm a 3 year old black and tan female coonhound.
My owner Paige, has always joked that my ears are "Super Long".
She finally decided to measure them.
As it turns out, I did indeed break the record for the longest ears on a dog. Each of my ears measured 34 cm (13.38 in).
I'm a new 2022 Guinness World Record !
We have a 3rd Eyelid
We dogs typically have three eyelids.
Our upper and lower eyelids are easily visible, but the third eyelid is typically hidden in the inner corner of the eye.
Our third eyelid sweeps back and forth across the eye surface, wiping off mucus and debris and distributing tear film.
We dogs got more Teeth
You humans only have 32. But guess how many teeth us dogs have ? We have 42 !
Each of our teeth serves a specific purpose. Incisors are for nibbling and grooming, canines are for holding and tearing, premolars are for chewing and shearing, and molars are for grinding and crushing.

Big Dogs -vs- Small Dogs
Sad & Good Shelter Facts
Big Dogs -vs- Small Dogs
I can't figure out why, but . . .
70% of all Dogs in Saudi Arabia are Large Dogs and Brazil has the largest number of Small Dogs per capita.
Maybe it's because the Saudi's can afford to buy all that food for their Big ones.
Pets & The Doctor
