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

You could at least train them to dig the holes for you.

All ive been able to teach my 3 year old Rottie to do is to pull me to the door when he wants to do his business.
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
