Doesn't any one remember OKC, 9/11, earthquake rescues, and, I believe, a dog found a body in the water. Dogs are used for rescue. Live and dead rescues. I was living in Bellevue WA when OKC happened and a local team flew out to OK with their Aussie - if you think back the fireman and his Blue Merle, Australian Shepherd - Aussie to us proud owners, was featured all over America.

Dogs are very sensitive rescuers - if they find too many dead bodies they actually get depressed and their trainer/owners have to stage a fake live rescue.

I wondered why a dog was not used in Jessica's case.

Personally, dogs should be used at airports - at check in, at the gate, in the baggage area and a last sniff down the isles.

As you can tell - I did not like this article.

Australian Shepards are easily trained, great working and watch dogs as well as loyal family pets, are trustworthy around other animals - especially horses, and gentle with children. I cannot think of a better dog.

Three cheers for the Aussie Shepards!

(In loving memory of our "Snowman", white Aussie shepard)
