Best dog ever...

Bloodhound Louisa Belle certainly has a keen nose - for wine - having been trained to detect plonk that has been tainted, even through the bottle.

The seven-year-old's sensitive nose can also sniff out faulty corks, which her owners Michelle Edwards and Daniel Fischl say saves them a fortune.

The two run a wine label, Linnaea, in Melbourne, Australia.

And the pair say that by utilising the specific talents of Louisa Belle, they are leading the way in a new wave of vineyard techniques.

'She just has to sniff a barrel of wine to know whether it is off,' said Mr Fischl.
