OPINION

WADE, Judge.

The defendant, Jeffery Wayne Brewer, was convicted of one count of burglary and one count of theft over $1,000.00. The trial court imposed Range I sentences of four years on each count to be served consecutively. The effective sentence, therefore, is eight years.

In addition to his challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence, the defendant presents two issues for review:(1) whether the trial court erred by the admission of evidence that a scent dog followed a trail from the scene of the crime to the defendant’s automobile; and(2) whether the sentences were excessive.
