Jim a.k.a. the Wonder Dog

The TRUE Story of Missouri’s Official “Wonder Dog”

Jim was an ordinary black and white bird dog. Or was he?

He refused to be trained in the art of finding birds in the field, yet he knew exactly where the birds were and where they were not.

Jim could pick out specific people, cars, and other items. He could predict the winners of races, and much more.

Was it all a trick?

Was Jim psychic?

Nobody has been able to figure out how Jim did what he did. Can you?
