Bedbug-Sniffing Beagles and Other Scent Hounds

Animal Detectives

Beagles and other scent hounds have been used for hundreds of years to sniff out game or track down people. Today, many beagles and other scent-driven canines have been used successfully to sniff out bombs, drugs, and even lost people. They are even used to help the many people who have had to fight the rising problem of bedbug infestation. Age-appropriate text explores the life, training, and work of these bedbug-sniffing dogs.
