Dogs are amazing. I had a rottweiler who loved rocks. I purchased Saharan
meteorite lots from the Labennes in the mid 1990's. I learned not to leave
them lying around since my dog would take them and bury them in the
backyard.
There is one thing I cannot explain. I used to pick up rocks randomly, look
at them carefully and throw them into a river. My dog would jump in the
river and fetch the exact rock I threw in every time. What makes this
amazing is that there were several thousand other rocks to choose from yet
he was able to retrieve the exact one I threw in. I do not think dogs can
smell or taste underwater so I have no idea how he was able to accomplish
this.

Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] K9 unit to search for meteorites
Hello,
Now it's public.
A K9 police unit has been specifically trained to search for meteorites as
part of an experiment to find the limits of canine detection possibilities.
http://www.doogweb.es/2015/12/09/perros-detectores-de-meteoritos/
We have been part of these project and are amazed with the results.
Proof test have been conducted with different meteorites and climatic
conditions: Amazing, Kaly marks also meteorites he was not trained for.
Meteorites that we bring as our particular test.
A first field attemp in Villalbeto de la Peña was conducted without result
(cerfifying there is no one more? as we have visited the area dozens of
times without success)
Now we only need a new fall.
Sorry, Bingol would not work, Kaly is trained to search Chondrites.
Great notice for Brix and Hopper: Kaly is a female!
