    Aren't dogs incredible? They can be trained for practically anything, it seems, which makes their uses for helping almost endless. <3

    Dogs are wonderful! ;)
    Nice to know that professional dogs are increasing, just like those police dogs, they can help a lot.

    What a wonderful story Jessie, you're right dogs can be trained to help man kind in so many different ways! :) I was quite impressed reading that Migaloo found a grave within such a large area (an acre) and that Jackson didn't even know the graves location! I can't believe there are so many people that doubt dogs intelligence! By the way there was a big news story here in New Zealand about a shelter dog being trained to drive a little car like contraption! I should find the video and start a thread.

    Never amazes me the wonderful things dogs can do.
    Imagine archaeology shows such as Time team will not use Geo-phys but dogs.:p

    This is really amazing. I know dogs are great at finding things but this is just...wow. I can't imagine how our lives would be without dogs - they really help us with everything.

    This is definitely proof that dogs can do anything. And whatever they do, it's always a beneficial factor to help us human beings keep going in the world. Without them, we'd probably be stuck both physically and emotionally, too!

    That's the part that really got me, too. They didn't even know where it was, so it's not like they could have somehow swayed the dog and then bragged about it. He found it on his own.
