Dr. Otto worked with detection dogs at ground zero after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and has consulted with the military on search-and-rescue dogs. <a href=\"https:\/\/r.smartbrief.com\/resp\/dRlGCertqOCenrcnCidbaFCicNxkDl?format=standard\" target=\"_blank\">National Public Radio (text and audio)<\/a> (9\/11)<\/address>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A detection dog-training center opens Tuesday, on the anniversary of Sept. 11, at the University of Pennsylvania so scientists can train dogs for search-and-rescue missions \u2014 and study what helps them succeed.<\/p>\n<p>Cynthia Otto, who served on a team that used working dogs to search for survivors in the rubble at ground zero, created the Penn Vet Working Dog Center. She&#8217;s a veterinarian who specializes in emergency, critical care and disaster medicine, and she has consulted with the military about the health of search-and-rescue dogs, including Cairo, the dog who worked on the Osama bin Laden mission. She tells <em>Fresh Air&#8217;s<\/em> Terry Gross that detection dogs are invaluable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are so many jobs now that dogs are being used for,&#8221; Otto says<em><\/em>. &#8220;Originally it was kind of looked at as that patrol dog or the bomb-detection dog, but now they&#8217;re being used to find the IEDs [improved explosive devices]. Some of them are actually being used for therapy in the field, which is really incredible. But they&#8217;re starting to look at all of the different potential components that these dogs can contribute to&#8230;and the detection area is so important because these dogs are better than any machine that we have \u2014 and they can save lives.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"con160950493\">\n<p>Annemarie DeAngelo, the center&#8217;s training director, founded the New Jersey State Police Canine Unit and has worked with canines for more than 13 years. With her dog partners, she has searched for missing children, criminals and drugs \u2014 one drug seizure involved 1,200 kilos of cocaine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>With her canine companions, DeAngelo says she feels &#8220;very confident that I know my partner is doing his job, and that no harm is going to come to me, and we&#8217;re going to find what we&#8217;re looking for.&#8221;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>Interview Highlights<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n<div id=\"res160946755\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Cynthia Otto, a veterinarian who tended to the health needs of working dogs at ground zero, created the Penn Vet Working Dog Center.\" src=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2012\/09\/11\/otto_custom-9d79eb99bf291f2ac71dec3fda1fb5d1dfe0d22b-s1.jpg\" alt=\"Cynthia Otto, a veterinarian who tended to the health needs of working dogs at ground zero, created the Penn Vet Working Dog Center.\" width=\"138\" \/><\/p>\n<div>Penn CurrentCynthia Otto, a veterinarian who tended to the health needs of working dogs at ground zero, created the Penn Vet Working Dog Center.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- END --><\/div>\n<p><strong>A scientific approach to maintaining hydration for working dogs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong>Cynthia Otto: &#8220;One of the big concerns that we have not only with the military dogs but also the search-and-rescue dogs from Sept. 11 and Katrina is maintaining their hydration, and so that&#8217;s a project we&#8217;re very actively working on at this time because these dogs are so focused on what they&#8217;re doing. They&#8217;re really intent, and so they&#8217;re just gonna keep on doing it and they forget that they need to have a drink. And what happens is then they&#8217;re more likely to get overheated, they&#8217;re more likely to really get exhausted if they don&#8217;t take a break. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And so we&#8217;re looking at different approaches to keeping them hydrated so that they can stay safe, they can work well, and that&#8217;s a question that people have lots of ideas about, and no one&#8217;s taken that scientific approach. And that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re doing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>On how dogs are trained to find the living<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Otto: &#8220;With finding live people, it&#8217;s very important that they&#8217;re trained to very quickly identify a concealed person, and that allows them to work in an area where there are a lot of other people that are visible but aren&#8217;t concealed. And those dogs typically have what we call a very active alert \u2014 they bark. It may be used in the human remains also to have an active alert, but most of them are a more passive alert, which means that they would either sit or paw to alert that there is something there. The urgency with the live find is really what&#8217;s so important, because we have such limited time to be successful.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"res160951269\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Annemarie DeAngelo, the center's training director, founded the New Jersey State Police Canine Unit and has worked with canines for more than 13 years.\" src=\"https:\/\/media.npr.org\/assets\/img\/2012\/09\/11\/annemarie_custom-b94ad0ddc7ff8025a520f75b8839ea433c1c8d18-s1.jpg\" alt=\"Annemarie DeAngelo, the center's training director, founded the New Jersey State Police Canine Unit and has worked with canines for more than 13 years.\" width=\"138\" \/><\/p>\n<div>Sarah GriffithAnnemarie DeAngelo, the center&#8217;s training director, founded the New Jersey State Police Canine Unit and has worked with canines for more than 13 years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- END --><\/div>\n<p><strong>On how training dogs to apprehend criminals is different from search and rescue<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong>Annemarie DeAngelo: &#8220;When you&#8217;re sniffing, the dogs are using their olfactories to locate a substance, whether it&#8217;s explosives or narcotics. When you&#8217;re making a criminal apprehension, that is when the dog is assisting the officer and he bites and holds the person until the officer gets there, or if someone is assaulting the officer, dogs are automatically trained to protect that officer. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;[The training] starts out as game of tug of war and it evolves. It&#8217;s a long process, but it evolves to a sleeve, and you just keep training every day until the dog will go out and make a clean apprehension.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>On whether dogs have a sense of service <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><\/strong>Otto: &#8220;I would love to think that, but I think they think it&#8217;s a game. &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They don&#8217;t care who they find. If they find somebody, they get their Frisbee; it&#8217;s a game and that&#8217;s what life is all about. I believe dogs have such an amazing connection with us, and I think that sometimes what it&#8217;s all about for them is what they&#8217;re feeling from their handler \u2014 that pride that we can give them \u2014 that feeling, just that connection, because that is important to them. But it&#8217;s about the game. I don&#8217;t think that they really do know that they&#8217;re being so amazing and so patriotic and so helpful. They&#8217;re doing what they do naturally.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Pennsylvania has opened the Penn Vet Working Dog Center, a facility where dogs
