This building is about two blocks long and one block wide. The silent alarm showed someone moving around inside. With ADT I opened the door.... outside air was sucked in through the open door. , not blowing out. I announced on my car speaker " Los Angeles Sheriffs Department come out or a police dog will be sent in, if the police dog is sent in you will be bitten" NO RESPONSE. Tuffy was sent in with the wind at his back. He ran for about 100 feet made a right turn for about 50 feet and jumped up about 5-6 feet onto a pallet full of tires and burglar. The burglar was booked into LA General Hospital Jail ward. How did Tuffy find him ? I have no clue. There was no chance for scent drift or trailing, was it breathing sounds, aura or what? Your guess is as good as mine.
