The smell is in the air!

November 27, 2024 by

Search and Rescue dogs are generally categorized as air-scenting or trailing. Trailing dogs are usually on a leash and follow scents on the ground or other surfaces. Air-scenting dogs typically work off-leash and search for airborne human scent. Under the right conditions they can detect the target scent at a distance of a quarter mile, sometimes more!
