5. Labrador Retriever
America’s favorite dog breed is also a fantastic sniffer. Labradors, with their incredible noses, have been trained to detect cancer from people’s breath as well as medically undetectable bladder cancer from patient’s urine.
Hunters have long prized this breed from Newfoundland for their ability to either track or point to their prey depending on the hunter's preference.
Intelligent and easily trainable with an intense desire to please, labs are employed as guide dogs for the blind, are valued members of search and rescue teams as well as K-9 officers for drug and bomb detection.
These playful dogs’ gentle, loving natures make them the ideal family pet or hunting and fishing companion.
