No reason whatever to assume it would not work. The ability of dogs to track and to search successfully under arduous conditions is amazing. Dogs have been trained to detect if accelerants were used in starting fires and to indicate on oil leaking from cables buried deeply underground. So indicating on AFB should be relatively easy. The late stages when there is a secondary infection would scarcely need a dog, the revolting sour smell would be indication enough!. The early stages would be difficult to detect and there a sniffer dog would be invaluable.
