for our Search and Rescue class we had some police K-9 instructors/trainers and dogs come in for a day. absolutely awesome.

what did i learn?? those dogs are dang near impossible to fool. we had a guy leave a track all over the place, through a swamp, in a downpour...let the dog go almost an hour later in the down pour and it works with the wind to its back(very hard) and it still found the guy...

wanna know how alot of dogs track??? crushed vegitation and stuff left behind...rubber from the souls of your boots, fibers from your clothing etc etc...plus when we walk we crush the vegitation, even if we dont notice, leaving the dog a trail to follow.

keep in mind these dogs will find 1 marijuana seed in a car...

very awesome stuff...id like to get me a working dog when i get into the field. i could use it for LE and SARs...work out good for me...

but id be willing to bet that dog will still find you no matter what you spray and wear....

First post ever in a carbon camo thread. If carbon does actually help that much, those CBR suits we used to have to wear for chemical warfare drills should work great. They were packed with so much carbon that we'd be covered in black smudge when we took it off. I wouldn't wear one during bow season though. Talk about hot.

A blood hound could find where you thought about going. There have been things written about how hounds have trailed someone after down pours,or days after the subject had been through an area.Underwater with a snorkel is about the best you could do against their nose.

They did that last year with the carbon suits. The dogs found them every time. They wore rubber boots for some of the tests and they also wore elimitrax. Bathed with the scent killer soaps, put on the sprays and the carbon clothes. Dogs didn't have a problem following their trail.

Im thinkin icould do the same thing!

I use 'Coon Pee on my boots and had a pack of hounds find me!!! lmao

Or bears?

Just curious if the nickel bag was your's lol
