Except that dogs do sweat between their paws' toes, they use this scent to mark their territories - this is a) why your dog's paw will steam occasionally when its cold outside and b) it'll tear up other peoples lawn to rub the scent of its paws all over the place.

Does this make me a bigger nerd? :O

Dogs sweat through the pads of their feet.

Stop posting pointless topics.

they don't sweat (unless you show me evidence no wiki please) they dig because they think somthing nice is burried there, and if they "steamed" we would steam too. dogs keep cool simply by panting

Whoa, teach me how to cram this much stupid into so little words, please.

From Wikipedia, Dog odor. (Fuck your Wiki-hatred, if you don't believe it, google "dog sweat")

Quote:

Dogs do not produce sweat for thermoregulation. However, they do have sweat glands, called apocrine glands, associated with every hair follicle on their body. The exact function of these is not known, but it is suspected that these are meant to produce pheromones or chemical signals for communication with other dogs. These sweat secretions probably produce an individual odor signal that is recognizable by other dogs.

Dogs also have sweat glands on the pads of their paws and on their noses. These are eccrine glands. When these glands are active, they leave the nose and pawpads slightly moist and help these specialized skin features maintain their functional properties. The odor associated with dog paw pads is much more noticeable on dogs with moist paw pads than on those with dry pads.

It isn't used for thermoregulation, but it's definitely sweat and hot enough to evaporate as steam when it's cold outside. You ever see football players (or other sportsmen) practicing outside when it's really, really cold? Obviously not.

And when my dog decides to leave it's paws' scent somewhere he does it with his hind legs, not the forelegs which he (and virtually all other dogs) uses for digging.[/url]

AWKWARD ZOMBIE
