As we're kind of highlighting, just because you don't come from that background doesn't mean you're behind the eight ball, but your hard work speaks for itself.

And we do see lots of really dedicated, hardworking teams.

I kind of wanted to ask the question.

So as the people because this, again, comes up so often, like we said, we have people that have their own dogs.

So, Tim, what do you typically see as one of the.

major things that ends up kind of disqualifying someone's personal dog.

And if they were to show up, what would you tell them at a time that you're kind of looking for if they were to try to show up with their dog in hopes that this dog could go out there and do the job?

Yeah, it's I would definitely agree.

The number one thing that usually washes dogs out is the environmental aspect, you know, handling all the crazy things that many of these environments are going to throw at you, especially as a commercial detection dog handler.

So for a lot of the people that are watching and listening and maybe hear something like this, it's.

It's not always the problem of motivation.

The problem is the environmental soundness that really has to come from some of the crazy operational environments and the really desire to keep working multiple hours.

Like you guys said, it's a 10 hour shift.

And it's mundane.
