Just wanted to know if anyone has tried training a horse to do cadaver search
 
Our dog unit is currently faced with a cadaver search on a 10,000 acre ranch.
relatively flat pasture land. A lot to walk with your dog. This is a case where
handler would be able to cover more ground if mounted and work the dog, or
even better a horse that would indicate on cadaver.

In order to really enjoy a dog, one doesn't merely try to train him to be semi-human. The point of it is to open oneself to the possibility of becoming part dog.   Edward Hoagland
