There seems to be a trend towards smaller dogs for police use. Trainer Dave Blosser compares dogs like Midge favourably to larger breeds. "Size-wise, endurance-wise, they last longer," he says. And there are other advantages to smaller dogs, says Bob Eden, who trains police dogs and handlers.

On the other hand, dogs that are too small may not be able to get around obstacles, and there could be a credibility problem, Mr Eden says.

"A Jack Russell terrier may make an extremely capable narcotics dog," he says, "yet some agencies would shy away from such a breed simply because the dog doesn’t have the same respect from the public as a Lab or shepherd might."

This is one of the strangest pictures I have ever seen, but it's real. Jorn Olsen of Hasting, Nebraska took this picture. The clouds are called Mammatus clouds. They do not precede a tornado, or foretell a storm, but are formed when the air is already saturated with rain droplets and/or ice crystals and begins to sink. The worst of the storm is usually over when these kinds of clouds are seen. They are quite rare, but really beautiful.
