Dogs possess a more developed sense of hearing and smelling than men, but they cannot see so well. You may be surprised to learn that dogs are color-blind. A dog distinguishes objects first by their movement, second by their brightness and third by their shape. A dog lives on average for about 12 or 13 years. A puppy aged six months compares in age with a child six years old. A thirteen-year-old child is not yet grown up, but a thirteen-year-old dog is very old dog indeed.
