From the tail end of the dog to the other, did you know?

Did you know that a dog has 250 billion scent receptors?  When a dog is learning and communicating they are using all of their senses from sight, sound, and sent.  Knowing the scent is so incredibly high, use it to challenge your dog and interact in games using their nose.  No matter what the breed is from the toy breeds to the working breeds they all love to use their nose.  Be creative and think of games to play with your canine friend.   For example hiding treats throughout the house, or a special toy and asking your dog to find them.   Make sure to reward your dog when they find that special toy.  Play with them and the toy, and then repeat the process.  Your dog will enjoy the game and so will you!
