Cadaver dogs can and do track in water, usually in a boat. They can smell skin particles and gases that come to the surface.
This was not a cadaver dog...agree, it was a less "bio-hazardy" object.
True, in a boat, that is air scent tracking. IIRC F& G did use one on pudding pond in a boat and while the searcher was looking below the surface with a pipe, dog was searching for scent. This dog was in the water and located an object - that is specialized.
I will find the link but after all this time, LOL My file got fat, so,,,
