Dogs are believed to sense earthquakes through their superior hearing and sensitivity to vibrations. They can detect the low-frequency seismic waves that occur before humans can feel the tremors. Additionally, dogs have a keen sense of smell that may help them detect changes in the environment, such as the release of gases or chemicals during an earthquake. Some researchers also suggest that dogs may pick up on subtle changes in the Earth's electromagnetic field before an earthquake strikes.
