Red Dog Rising Paperback by Jeff Schettler

Do you like stories about police K9s? This is the book for you. Description: A riveting true story of Jeff Schettler and his police K-9, Ronin, a bloodhound involved in hundreds of searches, including some of the most heinous child abduction cases in California in the 1990s. Nothing seemed to stop them, and they thrived on the adrenaline rush that was almost a daily occurrence. They were manhunters—trained by the best. Red Dog Rising is also full of adrenaline as Schettler vividly recounts some of his and Ronin’s most fascinating cases. However, it is more than a tale of adventure; it is an exploration of “trailing,” a descriptive word for the art of allowing a dog to follow human scent wherever human scent might be — on the ground or in the air. An appendix discusses the differences between trailing and tracking and gives specific explanations for the nature of human scent on the trail. Ultimately, though, Red Dog Rising is the story of a man and his snack-loving, slobbery, courageous, and loyal K-9 friend and companion, Ronin. **Please be aware that my items are listed in several different platforms, so a listing may be ended suddenly due to it selling on a different platform. ** Questions?
