    Lightbulb what are drug sniffing dogs actually looking for???

    i was reading another thread about drug sniffing dogs and whatnot. it got me thinking, what are the dogs specifically trained to smell?

    if you take the 100% of the crystals off the bud, you are a left with plant matter that still smells like.............WEED. so if you have something like budder, are the dogs smart enough (or beter yet, well trained enough) to smell a nearly pure extract?

    now, ive never smelled budder, but i do plan on making it in the near future.

    ive also heard pure thc has no scent. somehow i dont believe that. which is actually the basis of my question.

    JUST FOR FUN, I trained my dog to search for weed. I used nugs, but she will also hit on empty pipes and bowls. I have never tried concentrate. I just happen to have some IWE sitting around. I will try and report back.

    Ok, here is the deal, you look at a bowl of stew, you see carrots, meat, gravy, peas etc with your eyes you see each piece. A dog smells like you see. That is why they can smell through just about anything. When they train them they start out by rubbing a ball in weed. That smell pretty much stays there for as long as you or I could ever smell it but the dogs can. You can not beat the dogs dont try. They win everytime.

    you dont understand what i am saying....you say they are using a BUD for the training. how do you know that the dog isnt honing in on another ingredient in the plant matter?

    goldowitz.....thanks for being the only one so far that knows what the hell im talking about. let me know how it turns out.

    and btw, i am more than familiar with how dogs smell. which is partly why i am questioning this in the first place. if the thc is like the carrots, how do you know the dog isnt learning to look for the smell of the 'onion' in the 'stew'?

    I had a link to an article from some guy that trained them forever but cant find the darn thing. I hear what your saying, could be hoining in on another part of the plant etc. I wish I could find the article it was very long but very informative. My gf trains dogs, not drug sniffers, but she knows her shit. I let her read it and the bottom line we came up with was screw it, cant beat the damm things. Might be anything I went to cancun a while back, I know there is a dog at the luggage pick up as I have seen them before. The luggage I use is in the grown room and had recently harvested so I went over by the dog on purpose knowing I had nothing in there to see if it would hit on the luggage and it did not. Not even a second look just walked right by me and on to the next piece.
