Title: Training the dog ! Post by: outlaw on March 13, 2010, 06:58:30 PM Hi There,
My jack russel was digging out a mole yesterday in Brecon, and it occurred to me a what if scenario ?? They train dogs at airports to sniff out drugs, money, food stuffs, so i wondered whether it would be possible to train a dog to sense where the hammered coins are burried ?? perhaps it was a silly thought ::) ;D Title: Re: Training the dog !

I should imagine he,d be a good detecting partner cause if im not finding anthing good on the beaches i can just leave him off his lead Im sure therell be lots of detectable item just left on the surface lol |
