Police Bloodhound Seminar
Grantsville, Maryland
April 23-28, 2000
One of the
things that stands out about the camp in Maryland is the infamous
"SWAMP."
For those who are not familiar with it, please follow along as the trail is laid
and the bloodhounds and their handlers try to survive it!
The escapee is loose. He made it to Maryland from Florida, where he stole a troopers police unit. Spotted due to his poor taste in clothes, he thinks that if he goes into the swamp no one will be able to find him, not even with a bloodhound!
After taping his boots, and swiping a sweat shirt, he is off. Hope the trooper is a friendly guy. Good thing they wore the same size!
Heading for the swamp at a dead run, a Florida Deputy just happens to be walking through the woods. Spotting the familiar orange color suit, he takes off after our bad guy. Unfortunately, the Deputy is tired from his long walk to Maryland and soon loses the bad guy.
Looks like the bad guy made it out of the swamp. Now he has to conquer a BIG hill, then a thicket of brush, a marshy area and he will be home free! Lets see if he makes it.
What a coincidence our Deputy thinks. Several officers and their bloodhounds just happened to be having a picnic right near the road! He points them in the direction the bad guy went. Soon the officers find something the bad guy dropped, scent their bloodhounds and they are off!
Will they find the bad guy? Follow the link to Swamp 2 to find out.
