what we see, what dogs see.
I got a dog three months ago, and although she is house trained (sorta?) the past couple of days, I've struggled with her peeing in front of the bathroom. I found it odd that she went for the same spot even though I had removed the bathroom rug. I was sure that there were no smells because I had washed the rug and hadn't placed it in its place yet. it was drying out. until I read today that dog can actually see pee!
it all stems from the dogs ability to see UV light and because of this UV vision, dogs can see more stars in the sky, anything that glows in black light, including pee marks.
which leads me to believe that the bathroom mat AND the floor needed cleaning...
finding this fact has led me to learn something cooler. dogs can see the earth's magnetic field!
"The answer lies in a special molecule found in the dog's eyes. Cryptochromes are molecules that are sensitive to light and can be found in animals, plants, and bacteria.
When we look at animals, these molecules play a role in the aminal's circadian functions. Cryptochrome 1a is the element found in birds that gives them their ability to sharply sense the magnetic fields on earth. Research now shows that dogs have cryptochrome 1a as well and this is what makes it likely dogs can see these invisible magnetic fields.
This special molecule gives the animal the ability to effectively navigate and orient themselves in whatever location they are in".
funny thing is, dogs align themselves with the earth's magnetic field when they go potty...
neat ha?
