Howdy AJ-
No that wasn't me that posted that story about the racoon and the flightline. Funny stuff though.
During the early seventies, ...that's 1970's not 1870's ...:), Uncle Sam experimented with numerous animals for securing primeters and searches. Shepards are good dogs but not the only animal with a good nose or extremely sharp hearing. I saw some tiny, otherwise limited use dogs, do some incredible sniffing jobs for explosives and drugs. And when it comes to sounding off about intruders, dogs will take a poisoned bait... geese won't and they won't shut up either ! :) Live and learn.
