Yogi is a legend in the missing-persons business, thanks to a truly super-canine sense of smell. With partner Officer Jerry Nichols, this bloodhound worked hundreds of cases for 70 different law enforcement agencies, winning numerous medals and awards and once tracking a missing child four days and 14 miles—and the case was an automobile abduction. Generally credited with having the best nose on any dog ever, Yogi worked tirelessly, stopping only sue to thirst or exhaustion, passing away a mere month after his last day on the job.
