excuse my lack of knowledge ( i'm good like that ) What are Chantarelles???
I'm assuming he found what he was supposed to though. What a clever boy.
He's VERY obedient

It´s a mushroom I wrote it wrong. Correct word is chanterelle not chantarelle. In finnish it´s kantarelli so I got messed up with that word

Thank u

Chanterelles are very tasty mushrooms and they are used almost for everything They are good in sauces with fish like salmon or beef, chanterelle soup is very delicious, chanterelle and beacon pie is too good
Basically chanterelles are used like what ever typical mushroom but this one are awesome! I think if tryffel is king of the mushrooms this one should be prince

I recommend to taste those if u just get opportunity sometime

are they expensive if you buy them

Here in Finland price depends on supply and demand. Price can change every day in summer and it´s between 5 - 20 € per 1 kg. After the rain mushrooms are full of water so then price get low too.

Dried chanterelles other story then My last price check is 4,35€ per 0,02 kg but dried ones contains about 14x more mushroom tha fresh ones

Frozen chanterelles is 15,072 per 1 kg at the moment, just checked out

thats great! How does he know what 'mushrooms' he is searching for? Xx

Different mushrooms got different smells
I have taught only one kind of mushroom to Toro and that´s chanterelle
I have different tracking commands for different objects to search for...

Toro can also track my smell example:
If I touch to the object and somebody hide it, command would be "OMA" (translate: own) and Toro will track it and bring the object to me.

I can also let him smell something like money and hide another euros somewhere. He will track these money if I command "etsi" (translate: search) but he have to take smell of the money first.

Chanterelles command is "Sieni" (translate: mushroom) Toro will track the mushrooms and if he found he will come to sit front of me looking to eyes...

These trackin things are so our thing...we love it.
Next year we try to get to the "team" who are tracking lost people.
