What are a dog’s whiskers for? Why are they so much harder and more rigid than other hairs? In this AnimalWised video, we talk about the whiskers of dogs and explain their various useful functions. We also inform you about whether a dog’s whiskers grow back and why it is so important not to cut or rim them.
