This is incredibly exciting and wonderful news! Kudos to the trainers!!
I love it ❤. I love dogs and all animals. So happy with all they are able to do. Let’s treat dogs and all animals with love and care.
Absolutely!
Dogs never cease to amaze.
They sniff out cancer and diebetics .
When their dog’s smell MAGA, they become a little hoarse.
@Sheila Davidson I just imagined dogs going around barking at diabetics lol. I know what you mean though. Dogs that signal at abnormal blood sugar
This was known about dogs last year. Why it was not utilized much, much more is a mystery.
Cute. My shiba inu refuses to work and makes me do everything for her. I need a Cobra in my life.
Because shiba inu’s have more cat like personality, were bred to be more independent.
That would suggest that you didn’t train her well enough, and likely indulged her instead, that’s why _you’re_ working _for her_ and she’s not working for her rewards.
Watch out for those puppy kisses…
as long as these dogs dont get sick as they are far more important then humans.
At least they’re not fighting against each other like humans do…
@Andrew Li actually humans taught them that. In the wild, in a wolf pack their domesticated nature would have to adapt – they would have to become fighters to survive.
They’re neither Democrats nor Republicans.
I like animals better than humans – they don’t make war and they don’t pollute.
🇬🇧 That was my first thought Peter.
Frikkin dogs are the best. Better than most humans. My best buddy is actually staring at me now with his keen interest in my wonderment about this post.
Good Boy!!! ❤️🐕
Please give him an extra treat for his studious attention!
@Betty McCallum If you dont like vaccines, dont eat a steak that was vaccinated seven times.
@cc Rider 🇬🇧 American beef is given weight enhancing hormones. Can’t do humans eating it any good. It’s illegal in the EU and still is in UK but dozy Boris will let it into the country given half a chance.
@Betty McCallum My sister’s name is Beth. You almost threw me for a McLoop.
@cc Rider Is that why they’re $17 each for what I used to get for $4.50?
These dogs Are Humankinds’ Best Friend !!
DOGS ARE AMAZING IN EVERYWAY. BRAVO TO THEM AND ALL THERE TRAINERS,… BRILLANT !
*their
Thank God, for some sort of uplifting and humorous news on this whole wretched saga!! Stella
Wow that’s absolutely amazing. Love dogs and their intelligence.
Dogs never seized to be man’s best friend.
@Iso Omena – I think you meant to write “ceased being,” as in “stopped.”
Dogs without any such training naturally use their sense of smell to detect any health problems, including skin problems, as part of their regular self grooming process.
Completely different,on humans they find skin cancers, etc that admit scents like other diseases do, didn’t know a virus had a scent?
My neighbor’s dog jammed her nose into my abdomen so hard it hurt, right over my tumor. I was already diagnosed and scheduled for surgery in a couple of days, but it was still amazing.
Some dogs can smell an impending seizure, so there must be minute changes in the body that are detected by the olfactory glands – the same probably goes for COVID virus, especially because the droplets inside the masks are coming from an infected person.
Dog can smell sugar high and low levels in diebetic. Cancer high blood pressure. Seizures. Hormones change before periods and pregnancy in a close relationship with owner. 🐕👍🇬🇧
Philippines already has a training center for dogs sniffing covid positive people since Oct 2020, but until now not used or implemented for public areas but for airports.
They’d be more effectively used in the departure lanes from Florida rather than arrival lanes.
Exactly what I was thinking
Absolutely true. Put Trump’s fence up around Florida, cancel all flights in or out. Wake up America!
Would be a wonderful and fun way to prescreen schools, care facilities, churches, and rallies!
Dogs: take pandemic seriously, and start working at covid test locations
meanwhile…
Republican humans: taking de-wormer for horses.
Most dogs are smarter than all the idiots taking horse medicine comboned
I think this is awesome.. but conspiracy theorists are going to lose their mind lmfao
The first man who spoke in this report ,clearly knows nothing of a dog’s capabilities and was trying be belittle their efforts. He’s a fool.
So just like with humans, the females have a keener sense of smell than the males…
DeSantis doesn’t know this, I presume, or he’d put a stop to it.
Or DeSantis has no authority at airports?
