有很多愛狗的人士都養了陪伴自己的一只狗狗，狗的品種也是多種多樣的，在這些狗狗的身上也有很多有意思的故事發生。

史賓格犬"魯比"是英國最成功的嗅錢犬，在服役的五年時間里，她總共截獲了1050萬英鎊的違禁現金。

6歲的魯比在英國倫敦希思羅機場工作，在這里，她成功"破案"數百起。其中，截獲的最大單筆金額是一名赴泰乘客手提行李中的20萬英鎊現金和銀行匯票。

Even royalty is not immune to her smelling powers, and she was caught instinctively sniffingthe Queen's handbag during a visit to the Home Office in November.

即使是對皇室，這只母犬也毫不"徇私"。去年11月魯比前往內政部做客時，還本能地嗅了嗅英國女王伊麗莎白二世的手提包。

Ruby's record-breaking success during her five-year career is a huge boost to Britain'scrackdown on money smuggling in the fight against terror.

在她的五年職業生涯當中，魯比創紀錄般的成功對于英國對抗恐怖、鎮壓走私來說是有巨大的推動作用。

Ruby specialises in detecting the scent of ink on banknotes, which is much harder than sniffingfor drugs or explosives because the smell of money varies more.

Ruby非常擅長檢測涂在鈔票上油墨的香味。由于錢幣味道的不同，所以這與嗅探毒品、爆炸物相比要困難許多。

During a ten-hour shift she will check around four flights, which carry thousands of pieces ofluggage and up to 580 people.

魯比”能一口氣在機場工作10小時，并嗅探大約4個航班的580名旅客及上千件行李。

When she finds a scent, Ruby will 'freeze' at its strongest point, pointing at it with her nose.

當她發現疑點時，就會立時停下身子，用鼻子直指可疑物品。

Her handler, Border Force officer Dave Bellingham, 38, said: 'She is brilliant, a very, very specialdog. She's really enthusiastic for her work. To her, it is a game, like hide-and-seek ... Butshe's so good at finding it.'

38歲的“魯比”訓練員戴夫·貝林厄姆自豪地說：“她是一只聰明、特別的狗，而且相當熱愛工作。對她來說，這是一個捉迷藏的游戲……而她總能找到!”
