Bee Culture Magazine - The Dog Who Saved the Bees

Cover: The Dog Who Saved the Bees

This new book, The Dog Who Saved The Bees, is about Cybil starting from square one and resurrecting the Dog Inspector AFB ID Program. The book is a short fun and informative story about Cybil and her adoption of the energetic dog Mack and the time, effort and love to get Mac trained for Maryland Beekeepers. Illustrations are colorful and connecting to the story and the reader. Thanks to trainers like Major Mark Flynn who helped Cybil and Mack, Mack was certified as a Scent Detection Dog. We all know that to ID AFB requires us and or an Apiary Inspector to disassemble a beehive and look at every inch of brood comb. It takes a long time. Mack was able to use his excellent scent of smell and put his training into practice and searched more than 1,600 individual colonies in a single month! Cybil and Mack received the Customer Service Heroes Award from the Governor of Maryland. But I haven’t told you the whole story. You need to read the book and become impressed like I was with Cybil and Mack and Mack and Cybil.
