A bonus edition of Dogs with Jobs - from the Big Apple! Presenter Kate Fairweather was in New York in April and ran into Caboose, unobtrusively doing his job at Manhattan's Staten Island Ferry Terminal.

Meet Caboose, a yellow Labrador as he works the late shift with his owner Michael from 9pm to 5am the next morning. Working with at least two other canine colleagues at any one time, he makes sure that any luggage, panniers or backpacks passing through this important transport hub are clear of explosives.

Like many professional dog handlers working in law enforcement, Caboose's handler was formerly a dog handler in the U.S. marines. He talks about what a working day looks like for Caboose. The partners work through an agency and so can be deployed anywhere, but Caboose and Michael's regular patrol patch is the ferry terminal, where there are at least three dogs patrolling at any one time.

Do you work your dog or dogs?
