Dog's Preferred Bathroom Position

Scientists have discovered that dogs actually tend to relieve themselves in line with the Earth's magnetic poles. 70 different dogs of 37 different breeds were observed while defecating and urinating over a two year period. The study recorded them going number two 1,893 times and number one 5,582 times. The results from the scientists data show that the dogs have preferred to face the magnetic north and south. They also showed that the dogs did not prefer the magnetic east and west and avoided it if possible. There were also tests done in which the magnetic fields were disrupted and in these tests the dogs just went to the bathroom in random directions, without a directional preference.
