Three CISF sniffer dogs emeritus, three more accepted in Ahmedabad

Three sniffer dogs, conveyed by the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) unit at Ahmedabad Airport, were given a goodbye party in a service held at the CISF complex in Meghaninagar on Thursday evening.
According to a report published by The Times of India (TOI), these Labradors have crossed 10 years of age. Each of them has been taken in by families in Ahmedabad.
“I used to cook food for CISF personnel and the dogs. I am attached to them so I decided to adopt,” TOI quoted Sanjay Lodhi, a resident of Meghaninagar, as saying.
Meanwhile, three new sniffer dogs, Grace, Molly and Candy, have been inducted.
“Gracy and Molly are labradors while Candy is a cocker spaniel. These dogs have a sharp sense of smell. Each of them are around two and a half years old and were trained at the Dog Training Centre in Ranchi,” TOI quoted a CISF official as saying.
“The dogs have undergone rigorous training for six months. Their diet is prescribed by the veterinary doctor. The trio will be kept at the office of the Bomb Detection and Disposal Squad at SVPI airport,” the officials added.
