Richard Reynolds is a dog show judge by day, but at night he hits the streets looking for rats with his Bedlington Terrier, Marcus. When Inside Edition caught up with him one night, he had put together a “rat posse” consisting of six dogs and their owners to hunt rats in New York City’s Lower Manhattan.
The dogs work as a team to sniff out the rats, wherever they may be—in dumpsters, garbage piles and abandoned fields.
By the end of the night, there were 21 fewer rats on the streets, thanks to the determined group.
