The canine scout is a land scout. It can be trained from Town Centers and Capitols. The canine scout can go through trees but is unable to attack other units. It can however be equipped with an attack value in the scenario editor. The canine scout is a unit available in all epochs. It costs 50 food, and travels quite fast and can move inside forests. Unfortunately, it can't attack in random games, so it's a sitting duck when surrounded. Various hospital upgrades through the epochs increase its HP.
