pretty amazing what the dogs can do
I don't think it was myth busters but I can't remember what it was but a show was showing what dogs are capable of. Pretty mind blowing. Finding stuff where something was dropped in a lake really stood out to me but there was a lot of cool stuff

Yeah, when water recovery sar dogs hit on the river we'd hike back up about 50 yards and you'd usually find something. Only real way to beat the dog is to overwhelm the nose cool hand Luke style.
Yeah, the only way they beat the sniffer was in a city with a lot of different scents. Red pepper didn’t work, getting in a creek didn’t work etc. but the city did.

I was told find a dumpster or trash cans and spread the shit out and walk all over it by the tracking dude.
