Dogs have a far superior sense of smell compared to humans.
While the exact number is unknown, a dog’s sense of smell is around 10,000 to 100,000 better than ours. Dogs have up to 300 million olfactory receptors in their noses, while humans have about 6 million.
Research also shows that dogs can even smell a person’s feelings and moods. A dog’s sense of smell can detect anxiety, fear, and sadness.
This is the reason why many pet owners say that their dogs can usually tell what kind of mood they are in, whether happy, sad, or stressed.
In this video, Daisy the Husky uses her excellent sense of smell to discover her surprise.
The video starts with Daisy entering a home and going directly to a big figure on the floor that looks covered in a large checkered blanket.
Daisy starts sniffing the figure, but can’t determine what, or who, it is.
While she’s sniffing, her tail begins to wag excitedly. It looks like Daisy is trying to figure out what exactly is on the floor, but she has an idea of what it is.
She continues to smell and tries to remove the blanket with her snout. She continues to circle the figure on the floor.
You can see that she is extremely excited and trying to go under the blanket to find out who it is.
Finally, the figure starts to move, and you can see that it’s a person under her blanket.
Daisy finally confirms who is under the blanket when the figure emerges and shows her face.
She jumps up to greet the person and hops on the couch excitedly. Dog behaviorist Nanci Creedon posted the video and explained in the caption:
“Daisy had always had a great relationship with my friend. She (friend) moved to the UK so Daisy hadn’t seen her for a few months, so when she came back we wanted to surprise her.”
Creedon further wrote that Daisy definitely knew something was up, but the husky wasn’t sure until she saw her face. Then she knew her friend was back!
Daisy continues to jump on the couch and bark excitedly when the friend asks for a hug.
It looks like Daisy was so excited to see her friend that she almost didn’t know what to do with herself.
Finally, she started licking her friend’s face and hands to say hello.
This happy reunion has been viewed over 3 million times. Daisy and her friend have touched many hearts with how happy they were to see each other again.
One comment said, “First the smell, then the voice. Doggo can’t control itself anymore!”
Another netizen commented, “It still amazes me how much emotions dogs carry and can show humans.”
Thanks to her exceptional sense of smell, it only took Daisy a few seconds to recognize her long-lost friend.
She knew someone familiar was under the blanket, and when she finally saw her face, Daisy confirmed who it was.
It’s so nice to see how Daisy and the friend were equally happy to see each other. You could feel the joy in their reunion and how excited they were to be back together.
It’s also amazing to think that Daisy just had to smell her friend to know who it was.
