What is a dog's wisdom bump?

A dog's wisdom bump, also known as the occipital protuberance, is a bony protrusion located at the back of a dog's skull. It is more prominent in some breeds and can be felt as a raised area on the head. This bump is thought to be a remnant of evolutionary adaptations and serves as an attachment point for muscles and ligaments that support the head and neck. Unlike the term suggests, it does not indicate intelligence or wisdom in dogs.
