innie, outie or smoothie

Is it true?

‘Dogs have no belly buttons, because their mothers gently chewed the wound from the umbilical chord, and licked them while they were healing, doing so until there’s virtually no scar from birth.’

no belly buttonThere’s heaps of folks with no belly button, including a well-paid fashion model with a ‘smoothie’ belly.

Well, I never. I’ve never thought of it before.

Answers.com has heaps of comments about a dog’s belly button. After birth the momma dog bites it in two and it dries and drops off, leaving the belly button. It’s not as prominent as a human one but it is there, if you look real close on the dogs tummy you will find it – just a small “innie”.
