When my K9 was alive I would send him out into the backyard for an "area search" just like if we were at work. He would instantly change from couch mode to work mode with a single command. Our backyard was fenced in so he knew the perimeter to check and he could do it efficiently and quickly.

Now I have two Boxers that are about useless unless there is a squirrel in someone's yard three doors down. One is scared of everything and the other is as blind as could be.

GSDs and the like can do the same trick around your truck/car. Fun stuff.

As in searching for people?
We had a tow yard in the city that the crack heads would sneak into and try to cut converters off of cars. I remember a few times him either chasing someone into the bed of a truck or just finding them there
