At last, the big mystery is solved by the scientists… Yes! The scientists in Sweden and Hungary have chased the mystery behind the cold noses of dogs.

Well, let us explain it in clear…

When the ambient temperature outside is 30 degrees centigrade, then dogs bare endpoint of the nose will be 5C cooler.

And

When the temperature turns down to 0C then the dog's nose will have 8C… Calculating these two instances, the average turns to be 15C.

Thus scientists have found that dog's nose will work as a sensor and can also detect very faint heat sources and that too staying 1.5 (5t) away.

Researchers from Lund University and Eotvos Lorand University have worked on three dogs and trained them. They have simply done their work by detecting four-inch width objects in 12C more than the regular room temperature.

The scientists have also made the dogs go on a double-blind test and guess what, these dogs have recognized the weak thermal radiations too.

Another 13 dogs were also made to go on behavioural experiments and they have responded to heat stimuli. This made the warm stimulus elicit an increased neutral response.
