Many people must have had this experience: they were sleeping soundly at night, but then there were barkings one after another outside the window. What’s even worse is that this barking is like pressing a linkage switch, and other dogs around them also start barking excitedly. The one after another noise makes it difficult to fall asleep. In this regard, many friends have raised questions, did the dog see something unclean? What is going on?
In fact, dogs cannot see unclean things. This is a superstitious statement. Scientifically speaking, it is mainly because dogs have very developed senses of hearing and smell. Therefore, subtle changes in the environment will trigger abnormal reactions in dogs. For example, dogs suddenly bark in the air. They may be frightened or smell a special smell.
Dogs' vision is not good, equivalent to 0.3 of human vision, so dogs rely heavily on their sense of smell and hearing. Although dogs cannot speak, they can judge the owner's meaning through slight changes in the volume and euphemism of the owner's voice, and can even tell whether the owner is sick through the smell.
So when a dog barks inexplicably at the air or objects, it is probably just because it smells an unusual smell or is frightened. In order to protect its owner, it barks loudly to provide a warning.
