Nova Scotia RCMP say cadaver dogs did not locate human remains in the search for missing children Lilly and Jack Sullivan.

In a news release Wednesday, the Mounties said two dog teams searched a total of 40 kilometres in the Lansdowne Station area in late September. The s parsely populated community in Pictou County is about 140 kilometres northeast of Halifax.

Insp. Luke Rettie and his police dog, Narc, as well as Sgt. Dave Whalen and his police dog, Kitt, searched the property the children went missing from, along with a nearby pipeline and intersecting trails, and in the area where a pink blanket was previously found, the release said.

It said those locations had the highest probability of finding the children, but they were not found.
