Air Scent (Dog): A dog that searches for the source of human odor. They are typically 'Nose Up' when they work, and are usually non-scent-discriminating.
- Air scent dogs do NOT require a scent article or tracks.
- No starting point (or Last Known Position) is required.
- Multiple dogs can work an area, though not at the same time.
- A dog can work an area that has already been searched by dogs and/or people.
