Well trained dog feels the smell of the truffle on the 10 to 20 metres. After that, our dog starts digging.
A black truffle up to a depth of 20 cm the dog digs himself and brings to the owners hand.
The white truffle is on the depth till 80cm.
For the white truffle your dog will show you with his paw where to digg, after that it's on you to digg the truffle from the ground.
