    Is it proper to hold the dog’s snout like a bowling ball to show its teeth?

      A dog’s nose is 1000 times more sensitive than a human’s

      It’s animal cruelty so it works!

        It’s 1000 times more sensitive to scent. I’m no veterinarian, nor am I a dog, but I foster dogs, and those little fuckers aren’t exactly gentle about shoving their snouts into anything and everything available. I doubt it would hurt the dog.

        That being said, yeah, the dog doesn’t like it, and would probably bite anyone other than their human that tried to do that.
