If you have ever been a dog owner you probably noticed that your furry companion uses their nose to get them in trouble by sniffing out animals in the yard, food in the garbage, and many other things you have never noticed. The USDA is using their powerful noses to make sure agriculture in the US stays safe. Carrie Thomas a deputy Director with USDA APHIS shares some examples of how our furry friends' powerful noses are able to detect some unique scents from around the world but first she shares insight into how these dogs are trained for this unique job. Thomas says that the dogs are trained based on the location they will be working. For example, in Oregon the dogs are trained to detect Japanese Beetles due to their close proximity. Sponsored by the Wisconsin Soybean Association.
