Don't worry, I'm not starting a PETA movement or anything like that. But at that seminar with Joy, one of the guys that attended trains Narcotics and he mentioned the dogs always die of cancer of the nose.
Can someone be more specific? Is it just like burnout of the nose or just too much contact with narcotics? I thought it was an interesting subject and wanted to learn more.
Thanks for any responses <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Okay, I have no experience with the bomb dogs. That would be interesting reading.
If I had to take a guess, I'd imagine the idea is that inhaling the explosive ingredients could be carcinogenic. Would be interesting to see if this is addressed in any of the veterinary journals/sites?
All chemical compounds have data sheets availiable for them that give all safety criteria for them , I'd suggest any one interested contact some of the explosive manufacturers for the data sheets on their products. Ive never heard of people like shot firers who handle explosives regularly having a increased risk of cancer, admittedly thats people not dogs but Id say that dogs would of been used as lab animals when running tests on the compounds before marketing them. This one sounds a bit like the old one you sometimes hear that drug detector dogs are made drug addicted to motivate them to find drugs. What a wank that is. Likes beagles have to be made addcited to rabbits to want to find them.
