Selkii....One question for dog lovers....does the five second rule not apply because dogs don't allow food to stay on the floor that long or because it never hits the floor?

With one of my dogs... It never hit the floor. She would station herself under me or the counter or the stove, mouth at the ready.

With my remaining pup, it hits the floor... I think. At nearly 17 yo, he's like greased lightening when it comes to food.

I can throw a piece of cookie across the room and my buddy (his name) will catch it in his mouth...then sit and eyeball me for more!

For those who are ignorant about it (as I was until 5 seconds ago!), Wiki says:

In folklore, the five-second rule states that food dropped on the ground will not be significantly contaminated with bacteria if it is picked up within five seconds of being dropped.

Both..... I had a chihuahua 17yrs old that could hear a piece of food falling through the air and be across the room before it hit the floor....

Sure saved on Vacuum Cleaner Filters....
