I asked the question:
Does VT have a dog?
Does Blacksburg?
Whose dog was shown on TV? It looked like state police.
Where is he based?
It is fine to say a dog should have been there in the first 15 minutes. But if the dog is based one hour away and maybe on another case miles in the opposite direction, ????
There is a lot of could be, maybe, should be here and almost no facts.
Have the facts before you make the suggestion.
And by the way, when the dog arrived, what did he find?
Dogs are great, but they do not work every single time.

Was not my suggestion.
An earlier post mentioned ‘if a dog was available - the shooter had walked 10 minutes to his dorm room’.
If a dog was available to track the shooter, that’s approximately how long it (the dog) would have taken to follow the tracks / trail of the shooter.
