The strangest or obscurest things catch your attention, Naut. I would never have stopped to consider the handedness of dogs, water, or any other element. But then I’m caught up in my world of esoteric thinking which, I think, leans neither left nor right. It just leans.

Never thought handedness could be seen in water molecules.

Aren't you happy with the way Jag tracks? Poor Jag! If you asked his opinion, he would probably be miffed and tell you to take it or leave it.
I've enjoyed these posts and now know that if the best way to impress readers is to use Greek words; chirality is very melodic and I must try it out in another context.

I wish I could ask my father. He bred and trained Llewellyn Setters. I don't remember ever seeing one point with a left foot. Why do you do this? I can't answer any of it but I want to. I can only befuddle my head over it. You know I don't believe in the big bang or even a little one but I like your posts.

hmmmmm so... since to get a statistically significant sample you would need quite a lot of "helpers" reporting their doggies prefferences I would suggest you spend sometime in doggie parks observing and taking notes :-) I can see you sitting there with your own looking at other's dogs and atracting a group of groopies that will do your bidding and start a movement of "doggie observing" people... Good luck with that :-) xoxo

It would seem that if you do not much like the way your dog tracks, you can give him ibuprophen or other NSAIDS and he will be a candidate for chiral inversion. Of course, there is always the possibility that he will die of liver disease before he begins to track in the opposite direction.
