why are owls wise?

Because Owls ask questions... like Who? Who?

and Dogs do not urinate to mark their trail... they do it to mark their territory: claiming it as their own.

Owls are said to be wise because in ancient Greece they were associated with the Goddess of Wisdom known as Athena.

She was represented as the bearer of all hidden knowledge which was associated with night and the moon. Since owls are nocturnal, they were sacred to this particular mythology.

As to the dog pee thing, I have heard that they like to mark their territory by putting down a scent. Hence, the strategic peeing.

In Greek mythology, the owl, and specifically the Little Owl, was often associated with the goddess Athena, a bird goddess who became associated with wisdom, the arts, and skills, and as a result, owls also became associated with wisdom. They are the unofficial mascot of the high-IQ society Mensa.

Because their sense of smell allows them to detect the pheromones better than their paws allow them to navigate the buttons of the sat nav.

Owls are wise enough not to get involved with YA debates, and if dogs had GPS devices, they'd have no place to mount them except on top of their heads, so they wouldn't help much

Owls, are theory to be clever because of the fact of their forward dealing with eyes, and their skill to work out interior the path of the darkness. In historical Greek mythology, an owl in many cases accompanies the goddess of understanding, Athena. Athena, is in specific cases refered to as vivid-eyed, or with glowing eyes. apparently, the Greek be conscious for vivid-eyed and owl come from the comparable root be conscious.
