    Summary: 
    "Cat Warren is a university professor with an admittedly odd hobby: She and her German shepherd have spent the last seven years searching for the dead. Solo is a cadaver dog. What started as a way to harness Solo’s unruly energy and enthusiasm soon became a calling that introduced Warren to the hidden and fascinating universe of working dogs, their handlers, and their trainers. Solo is only one of many thousands of working dogs, a captivating field that includes cadaver dogs, drug- and bomb-detecting K9s, tracking and apprehension dogs. Working dogs’ abilities may seem magical or mysterious, but Warren shows the multifaceted science, the rigorous training, and the skilled handling that underlie the amazing abilities of dogs who work with their noses"--Provided by publisher.
