Are dogs smarter than cats? Which has better hearing? According to New Scientist Magazine, both pets’ hearings are far stronger than humans. However a cat’s auditory range (45 to 64,000 hertz) is far wider than that of dogs’ (67 and 45,000 hertz).

Dogs are fantastic, but they don’t mix with everything. It’s generally considered a pretty poor idea to leave your 100 pound boxer alone in a room with your finest china. Or to give your feisty Dalmatian free reign in your pantry. Or to leave a mischievous little terrier alone with the wires that connect your laptop, desktop, air-conditioner, iHome, and printer-scanner-fax.
Those were all (I should hope) fairly intuitive. Here are 5 tips for making your home a dog-friendly environment that you might not have considered:
1.) Don’t Want to Share a Bed? Give a Bed!: Try purchasing or building a special sleeping spot for your sleeping Spot. Not only will it cut down on their attempts to jump up onto your slumbering oasis, it will allow them to have a place they can feel ownership over. A small, raised bed designed just for your pooch can keep him happy – and fur out of your covers. Try going to a supply store to get one!
Watch with caution and without eating/drinking anything (may cause choking because of laughter):
Dog with weird snoring problem or possessed, satanic, one-headed Cerberus dog? You be the judge.
