Lefties, Righties... and Paw Preferences . Do dogs have a favourite side like we do? Science Short
2026/07/03 | 4 mins.
Why do some people write with their left hand while most of us use our right? And could your dog have a favourite paw too?

In this Squiz Kids Science Short, Christie uncovers the fascinating science of handedness. Then it's paws at the ready as we sniff out brand new research revealing that dogs have paw preferences too! Scientists have even invented a fun new test, the Doginburgh Inventory, to work out whether your furry friend is left-pawed, right-pawed... or somewhere in between.

🐶 Think your dog has a favourite paw? ⁠You can put your pooch to the test at home!⁠
