Wow, did you know this is how dogs drink water? Dogs drink water by rapidly lapping with their tongues. They curl the tip of the tongue backward to form a kind of scoop, quickly flick it in and out of the water, and pull a column of liquid into their mouths. The speed of this motion, along with gravity and inertia, allows them to take in surprising amounts with each lap. It’s a fast, messy, but very effective way to stay hydrated. #dogfacts #dogbehavior | Thinking Canine
