This article may help explain it:What does a cadaver dog do in water, to alert to something? I'm not familiar.
Though I did notice it looked like something was thrown into the water (I'm guessing by the dog handler?) just before the dog jumped in; you can see the movement on the water surface on the left in the video....like how it looks when you're skipping rocks on a lake.
If she's not yet 2, she is big for her age!
My little girl was 3 last week and she is only a teeny bit taller but same weight as Hazana, and she's not particularly small for a 3 year old!
Oh and for the record, I'm the same height as Hazana's Mom, at 4ft11!
Aren't they searching Travis Bryan park (nearer to mom's house) not Gabbard Park where the fisherman were?
This is a different park... it is closer to the moms house.
My thoughts exactly! I have a soon to be 2 yr old. By the time I get him changed, fed & cleaned up it's like 10am. You will never see me out n about before 10am my son/2yr old is just that busy.nothing in the story makes any sense. The easiest thing in the world is to push the stroller and your baby with you, back to the car. Why wouldn't you do that?
And who takes a 2 yr old to the park at 8 am, and gives them a bottle, so early in the day? What a weird schedule.
At 8 am, if you have a child that just woke up and ate breakfast, you go get errands done, etc...they shouldn't need a bottle and an hour at the park...seems like a weird schedule for a 2 yr old.

Is this the media that showed the dog jumping into the water?
I watched the video. Yes, dog jumps into water, but it was not an 'alert.' He was enticed into the water. Watch closely to the left of the dog, and you will see something skipping into the water, then dog jumps in. Most likely to 'acclimate' said K9 to immediate environment for search purposes.

I think they must be reasonably sure they're going to find something, to be out after dark.

"I think somebody has her and is trying to hold onto her," Hazana's father, Taboerick Anderson said.

I doubt the fact that the clothes were in the dumpster means she was stripped and then disposed of. It is likely the girl has been gone for some time and mom just grabbed an outfit to say that was what she was wearing. She had to get rid of them so they wouldn't be found in her house or wanted it stage it to look like someone had taken her and took her clothes off.
