Isn’t it going to be a big risk that these dogs could spread the virus!!?!

The virus could infect the dog Not fair

It's nice and apparently could be effective, but it's obvious that trained sniffer dogs can't be scaled up and mass produced.

Even our Sniffer Dogs are World-beating. We must be the envy of nations.

does not the covid infect through nose ? are we sacrificing those lifes to protect ourselves ? This is dishonorable and unethical.

Just when you thought TSA doing colonoscopies was bad!

Was this not talked about as an option at the end of March?

Smart lil guys I tell you. Dogs are just amazing 🐾 💕

I will be very worry cause the dog might get sick in the attempt?
