Tracking Dog |
| |
| A tracking dog works in a tracing harness
and line. This dog is best used when the
last whereabouts of the missing person is known.
This location is known as the point last seen,
or PLS. The dog is brought into the
vicinity of the PLS in the hopes that she will
be able to pick up the track of the missing
person. A scent article may be helpful
here, as this dog is scent-discriminating.
The dog will track with its nose to the ground,
primarily focusing its attention on contact and
ground scent. |
