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]

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.
Is this thing on?

Not all dogs are awesome.

Some are like the people that raised them.

 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."
