For instance, dogs have about 45 times more scent receptors in their noses compared to humans. This keen sense of smell has been known to come in handy in a vast range of cases where so much is at stake. This unit has been known for leading to breakthroughs in major cases, saving lives, helping to catch criminals, as well as serving as a loyal companion to their handlers. The K-9 unit also serves a major function at borders and in airports, snuffing out drugs and contraband items. Petland loves to help keep the community safe by contributing in their own way to K-9 units. The importance of K-9 units in communities cannot be underestimated, particularly in the area of search and rescue operations. Enjoying this read? You'll love our puppies.
