We have developed a way of recovering scent to assist our dogs in tracking. We have had this procedure tested in Toronto on a real track in what would be considered a contaminated area. It worked. Dogs indicate on very small amounts of scent. It is the human mind that often interferes in this work. Those who think and then use their thoughts or theories to train with, without testing or putting their theories to practical application, can damage a otherwise good K-9 program. We are in a race race against time. If we watch the clock and not the dog, we will lose. If we put restrictions on training and new handlers out of ignorance, everyone will lose. Dogs are powerful indicators; we must be skillful communicators. We try sometimes too hard and miss the simplicity of the exercises.
We will not compromise our dogs nor training, because of what someone thinks or from track records of other dogs. To change would be to become weak. It is our strength America and the world require as well as our methods.
