Hi jay,
I guess they would be picking up the smell of
gasses that are rising to the surface from the decomposing body.
I suppose in that case there would be an optimum window of time that they would be
effective through.

Alan,
The
dog rides in the bow of an electric powered RIB (no engine fumes to throw the
dog?s snoz off). Many water cadaver dogs (takes special training over a
basic cadaver dog) will reach over and snap the water with their mouth.
We guess that they are tasting the water. While none of my SAR dogs (had
three) were cadaver trained, the one I would take out on the water would snap
the water like the cadaver dogs so it must be something in their
genes.

Jay, was the
Cadaver dog free diving or using scuba gear?
It amazes me what
you Americans have over there.
