If there is one breed of a mixed Labrador Retriever since they have a very good sense of smell compared to humans.
Sheldon who is a mixed Black Labrador Retriever is one dog that found work with the Saginaw Fire Department in Texas working with his owner Lieutenant John Tadlock to work with him to determine if a house fire was an accident or an act of a criminal.
Sheldon's story is unique since he was terminated to work as a service animal training school since he was distracted by the smells in the workplace.
Sheldon then went to work with the State Farm Arson Dog Program in Michigan where officials at the program found out that Sheldon would be suited to work with Lieutenant Tadlock.
Lieutenant Tadlock and Sheldon are one dynamite team that intend to work together for life.
Lesson to be learned is when one door closes, another door opens in our world.

I'm so glad Sheldon will have a worthwhile "job" to do.
