Scentwork
Dogs, they're all about the nose!
Dogs have been used for their amazing scenting abilities for years. From being put to work finding explosives, firearms, drugs, cash, missing people and human remains amongst other things. More recently dogs have shown remarkable ability to help us detect cancer, diabetes, seizures and even covid!
