I love it! My old GR had a great nose too! We used to get her to find the other person who was at least 15 minutes ahead and the handler had no idea which trails the other person took. She was never taught this, just did it naturally.
She also did 'difficult extractions' when my parents BC lost her ball in deep bush or leaves, Cedar would go in and find it everytime time with her nose. She also found a set of stranger's keys (for a mom with 5 kids in tow) in a baseball diamond. Persistant!
