the human nose has about 6 million
different smell receptors in there
compared to a canines which is roughly
around 200 million think of a POTUS do
you know when when humans walk in we
smell a pot of stew beef stew or
something like that dogs when they walk
in they smell the carrots they smell the
potatoes all individually they can pull
all those different ingredients out a
typical training scenario which using
the idea of patterns they need to be
able to search a number of different
vehicles the dog is taught to give a
passive response to a sit that response
shows the handler that they that they
odor is present and then they get what’s
called a reward or a calm and that is
just a reinforcement it’s a game for
them that’s all it is it’s just a game
and if you didn’t have any kind of
reward at the end of it the game would
become pretty boring if Katie’s canine
training center we train everything from
the close of detection dogs for the
military law enforcement tracking
narcotics detection when the dogs are
out in front their job is to find the
bomb before the control gets to it we
use orange bumpers because the dogs
don’t see orange we’re trying to see how
good their noses are but we’re also
teaching them to use their noses rather
than their eyes I mean they’re saving
lives they’re saving tens hundreds
thousands when you’re talking about
hundreds of dogs being deployed on
anyone anyone deployment as we
transition into a less of a war scenario
we’re now working on a service dog
program so we can provide service dogs
to veterans with PTSD a lot of people
think we’re talking about working dogs
that they don’t have personalities that
the dogs don’t interact with their
handlers you start listening to the
stories of a certain dog it’s almost
like somebody talking about a pet and
yet we put that dog in somebody else’s
hand to keep people a lot
it’s pretty powerful that you can have a
dog that can have that kind of
personality and still go work for
somebody else and do the job just as
well for them as I did for you
