Title: D'oh!! Didn't we all know dogs are awesome??!!
Post by: Monster Dave on October 22, 2010, 07:32:31 AM
Check this out - it seems that the government in its infinite wisdome spent $19 BILLION dollars to find out that there's nothing in the US arsenal for bomb detection more powerful than a dogs nose.

[bang]

During bomb detection efforts in Afghanistan using drones, metal detectors, chemical sniffers, and super spycams the military is only able to detect 50% of hidden bombs. However, when using a dog that number jumps to a staggering 80%!

Way to go Fido!  [thumbsup]

dogs are awesome.
MythBusters recently had an episode demonstrating how awesome they were at tracking with a blood hound and drug detection with other doggies.

That is amazing! Sometimes my dog looks for its own ass but ends up finding a hole in the ground.

I saw this episode. That dog (bloodhound?) was incredible. He Tracked Jaime in a bio-suit that was completely airtight and unscented.

Not all dogs are awesome.

Some are like the people that raised them.
