Nice doggy...anybody wanna bet Justin and Sophie "rescue" one..?..

When I arrived in Australia last year, the dog that checked our luggage was a beagle. I was quite surprised, I thought that was a job for a German shepherd. However he did look as smart as a whip.

My favorite all time dog is the Australian Wild Dingo. Beautiful animal, however threatened by hunters and cross breeding.

Beagles are typically used to check luggage for food products. They aren't much interested in anything else.

These kind of things realy upsets this PETA idiots they have showed up dressed in KKK bedsheets and such during one of their stupid protests

She looks nice but can she hunt?

@Rich K. Beagles are also "cute" and non threatening so that they can be used around people. Their training is different than the drug sniffing dogs in that beagles are taught to alert by sitting down (passive) while the drug dogs are taught to be aggressive (playfully aggressive). I would hope that bomb sniffing dogs are taught to sniff and then run like hell..........

Looks like she found the Joe Biden of dog judges.

cute dog. it surprised me a few years ago when a beagle won best in show and now here we have another one. are they removing the sense of smell from them? we had a beagle when my kids were young. it was a sweet little dog but hard to train. it lived through it's nose, distracted by every smell available.

They aren't losing their sense of smell - they focus on the treat the handler has instead of the floor. It's just good training.

I've known handler Will Alexander since I was showing my second litter of Schnauzers - he's a great ambassador for the sport, a top notch handler and well deserving of the surprise win there. A BIG upset and so pleased for him and the dog's owners!

I was fishing on Lake Joseph in Muskoka ON, four years ago and the police and MNR pulled up with 4 snowmobiles and at least 100,000 dollars worth of gear to check our licenses (checkn za paperz) in the middle of frozen nowhere. One of them let a german shepard out of a heated enclosed sleigh that looked like a science fiction prop to sniff around my little tobbogan. (We walked out)
I told the officer I had deer jerky in a plastic bag right on the top of the gear, maybe I should go get it as he was getting the dog ready.
I was shushed by the testy MNR dude and hand motioned back and told loudly the dog was not "on" deer.

Dude lets the sniffer dog off the chain and it smashes the deer sausage, bites and throws it into the air and chews on it like it's their "good dog" game.

I wanted so badly to ask the MNR guy to write himself a ticket for allowing game to spoil. We left it on the ice for the gulls when they drove off.

should have asked the idiot for his badge #. Cops ain't hired for "smart".

Road Trip!

Don't know much about dogs, but I like him (okay, her)! Something noble there; like they say - good breeding always shows. Can't really point out what it is, but it remains nonetheless.

Poor dog has to meet with Donald Trump.
