Juno surely didn't have the answer to the question today. She ascted like she had never heard the word before. We were in a new place and on rubble, but I really didn't think that would make much difference to her. She did fine at alerting on the victim - good barks and no fear - after I pretty much led her into the vic, but not much motivation on her own to search. This is the Juno that I've washed several times.
It really bugs me that I can't find a way to channel this dog's drive into searching for people. I"m strongly considering giving my victims a dead squirrel to do a run-away with....
