  1. Drug Dogs

  2. Sense of Smell • Humans do not have a good sense of smell because as air enters the nose it must make a hairpin to reach the olfactory cells (nerve cells responsible for the sense of smell) • In dogs, air enters the nose and reaches the olfactory cells directly so that dogs have a sense of smell that is 200 times better than humans

  3. Drug Dogs • Usually Labradors and German shepherds are chosen to be drug dogs, but the temperament of the dog is more important than the breed of the dog • The dog can be trained as either a passive response or aggressive response dog • A passive response dog will point to the odor • An aggressive response dog will scratch and bark when it discovers the odor

  4. Types of Searches • Fire scene searches: dogs are trained to detect fire accelerants • Vehicle searches: these dogs search vehicles for drugs or explosives • Crowd searches: dogs on leashes will search a crowd of people • Area searches: dogs will search an area such as a field or forest
