Do you know if anyone has trained dogs to sniff out gold? I've always wonder because of the sniffing ability. Rats and mice have even a keener sniffer over dogs. And dogs love to dig. just a thought..

Baby, that dawg could smell gold a mile away!
I just thought that I'd share this story in this thread...
...Just the other day the local news reported about a very young local girl (4 yrs old, I think) who is allergic to peanuts and had an almost life-ending experience recently due to her eating something that contained peanut oil or something of the sort. Somehow, they now I have a dog that is like a seeing eye dog (therapy dog, not sure what to call it) so to speak, anyhow this dog is trained to alert if she smells peanuts of any kind. Whether it be an actual nut or anything at all containing peanuts of any kind the dog will alarm the girl or parents. I just thought that I'd share this considering the topic.
I agree with the others, I don't believe gold to have a distinct odor of it's own.
