It's just like some people argue that horses lower their head down to the ground to figure out what an object is at a long distance away. This is actually published in books such as The Horse Industry Handbook. Almost everyone who works with horses knows that this isn't the case and that horses actually raise their heads to look when something is spooking them at a distance.
lol
i always understood they raised them as well. better watch 'dogs' then dogs!
