-The longest recorded flight of a chicken is thirteen seconds.

A dog's arse is cleaner than human's mouth. I learned this is school. So yeah, it is acually more harmful in terms of infection, to be bitten by a human, than a dog. That may explain why there's a strong market for human mouthwash and not our doggie firends eh? :P
