Re: [meteorite-list] METEORITE DOG FINDS FIRST METEORITE FROM THE APRIL 14, 2010 WISCONSIN FIREBALL! THANKS !
Hi All, Thanks for the congratulation emails regarding Brix and his new find. Sorry it took so long to respond, it has ben a busy 5 days trying to locate and determine the extent of the Wisconsin fireball. Without a doubt, Wisconsin must be the friendliest State. Every landowner we talked with, allowed us to hunt their property and invited us back. I even had a chance to milk a cow! I can't tell you how cool it was to see Brix alert over the meteorite. I hope to have a few pictures up over the next couple of days. Congratulations to all the hunters and their new finds. Rob Matson and Mark Fries get a special thank you for providing the great radar data. The actual weight of Brix's meteorite is 205.6 grams, .2 grams must be the grass stuck on the meteorite!

Hi List, I've had the fun of hunting with Brix and his daddy Sonny Clary and witnessed how devoted they are to each other and how smart and driven this great German Sheppard is. I've watched Sonny train and work in the field with this super dog. I had my doubts about a dog's ability to scent meteorites...(perhaps Brix uses sight also). I forgot that these animals are used all over the world to scent out inanimate and animate items. Truffles, birds, rabbits, stags, wild boars, people, lost personal items, land minesso why not meteorites...especially fresh un-contaminated ones. I once saw a Belgian Malanois used by our police department go into a room full of men he had never seen before and immediately go to the one who had the drug test packet (marijuana) sealed in a fresh plastic baggie in his shoe. I was told a dog's nose is 5000 times as sensitive as a human being and can process thirty or more scents at the same moment. Yeah! Brix. Congrats Sonny.

Hi Count all, Impressive, is it not? Actually, while I do not know the stats On the various varieties, a Bloodhound's olfactory sensations are At least 100,000 times that of a human. Go dog!

I sure hope Brix hasn't been fixed. Keep me in mind if you ever offer pick of the litter or a stud fee, whatever the case may be.

Yeah, congrats to team Sonny Brix! And yes, Count, you're absolutely right about the ability of meteorite hunting dogs such as Brix and Hopper - they're great.

Re: [meteorite-list] METEORITE DOG FINDS FIRST METEORITE FROM THE APRIL 14, 2010 WISCONSIN FIREBALL!
LOL They could both be fixed, though.. A dog can be trained to sniff out anything, and with that said I think they could also be trained to ignore meteor-wrongs!Also, it is possible that Brix can sense that his owner has a passion for meteorites - it isn't uncommon for dogs to actually take on traits/desires of their owners.. --- Melanie IMCA: 2975 eBay: metmel2775 Known on SkyRock Cafe as SpaceCollector09 Unclassified meteorites are like a box of chocolates... you never know what you're gonna get! - Original Message From: Michael Johnson mich...@rocksfromspace.org To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Sent: Mon, April 19, 2010 1:33:20 PM Subject: [meteorite-list] METEORITE DOG FINDS FIRST METEORITE FROM THE APRIL 14, 2010 WISCONSIN FIREBALL! http://www.rocksfromspace.org/brix.html --- __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
