Do dogs have intuition?

[willdrake28]

My friends have told me stories wherein their dog was able to sniff someone out. For instance, one of my friends used to date this guy that she met from a real singles tour and had him over frequently at her apartment. Her dog used to behave really strangely towards him, like barking, growling, and generally showing aggressive behavior. Now, that dog is usually very sweet and friendly, so it was really weird.

Later on, my friend found out that guy actually lied to her about his age, job, and everything about his background. So I was wondering, do dogs really have intuition? Has anyone of you ever had a dog that acted strangely around a person you know, only to find out later on that their intuition was right about that person all along?

A dog's sense of smell is something like (?) 100 times more effective than ours. So they are going to pick up on subtle scents.

Emotional states create chemicals in the body, and these put out scents we are not aware of, but dogs are!

For instance....many animals are able to smell fear. But they may also be able to smell a lie!

A lie detector picks up bodily reactions, and these bodily reactions are bound to alter the scent of a person.

But underneath all that the dog has to be able to interpret that in terms they can understand, so their ability to interpret and respond accordingly shows they are highly aware and intelligent.

Are they intuitive? Well, yes I think so.

They can also be telepathic!!
