How long until my dog eats my dead body?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

Dogs normally don't eat you immediately after you die. But there's always an exception to the rule. Unlike wild animals, there's usually a "waiting period" before a domesticated dog will ravish your body. 8 янв. 2015 г.


How long before a dog eats a dead body?

On average, your dog will eat you within 5-7 days after your death. Sooner if instinct kicks in, but likely they won't start eating until they've run out of dog food and have no other option.

Do dogs know what a dead body is?

Dogs can easily detect the scents of their humans. Furthermore, deceased human bodies emit many different chemicals that dogs can pick up with their noses, especially when the bodies are not embalmed.
