    I remember reading that the dogs earn more than the chief constable in england - they earn over 500 a day. If you were to hire them 365 days of the year, they would earn something like 70grand more.
    I know a man who owns one. It cost 11,000 to train the dog in holland

    I don't think thats true at all. If I recall correctly they didn't find any bodies, the bones found were animal bones and I think there might have been some human bones but dating from long before the institution was set up.
    Check the final report, not the 'leaked' sensational stories that were reported in the tabloids as the investigation was ongoing.

    Of course this doesnt take away from the ability of the dogs to detect these medaeval human bones.


    EDIT: reading the story, it seems that the dog Eddie gave a (correct) negative signal here, further boosting his credibility.

    Yeah, Iguana was right.

    And he detected Attract Harron's remains on a car mat from a burnt out car, imagine that.

    The video of the two dogs searching the apartment is spine chilling but some would argue that fcuk knows what could've went on there before the McCanns arrived. But I can't fathom how Eddie marked Kate's clothes among all the items of clothing on the ground. Wtf?

    That story about Jersey was incorrect and subsequently denied. Eddie did not find a body under concrete, despite what the BBC reported at the time. In fact Eddie gave a correct negative signal at the site.

    I completely agree with you regarding the McCann case.

    Maybe because she was in contact with corpses before the holiday? I don't know, I find it hard to believe that they could possibly hide something like that.

    I also found it hard to believe the response that she took the childs toy with her visiting corpses. It would be theoretically possible to have moved a body to one of the other apartments....

    Oh yeah I forgot about the toy, maybe she touched it, or it touched an item of her clothes? Still though, they were in an intense media glare for how long and never cracked.

    Maybe I just find it too repulsive to believe a parent could do something like accidentally kill their child and then cover it up.

    Plus when did they do it? Before the dinner? Sit through an entire dinner with friends and appear normal?

    I don't think that a killing was suggested in fairness. When dogs were brought in a suggested scenario was that the child was left alone and given something for sleep. She either had bad reaction to that, choked on her vomit or something, or maybe woke up and climbed on the sofa to look out, then fell and banged her head, etc. This type of thing. They found her, panicked about the consequences (neglect+drugging, careers ruined as they were doctors) and stashed the body somewhere to be moved afterwards.

    Sorry for not reading your link before posting my comment DrDonkey. Good to know that btw.

    Well that's what I meant with accidentally killing, with the drugging, if they did.

    I still find it hard to believe that they managed to hide the body, then dispose of it and continue a charade that she was taken.

    Surely more evidence would have come to light other than the dogs, if something more happened.

    There were some things brought up as circumstantial evidence but I'm not up to date on it anymore - I did read the whole cache of documents but it was years ago...

    I really don't know how a sane person could keep up the charade for so many years... unless they do it "for the children". Imagine if one of them confesses to anything the other is definitely implicated and they are both imprisoned, for massive fraud if nothing else, with their children left behind. This would keep anyone from confessing I guess.

    True actually. I'm low on the ins and outs of the whole affair too so I wouldn't be great at defending them or otherwise.

    The whole thing is a tragedy and I don't know will we ever get answers.
