Apparently it's true. It's still being trialled but apparently dogs can sniff COVID.

Can dogs smell COVID? Here’s what the science says

Canines seem to detect coronavirus infections with remarkable accuracy, but researchers say large-scale studies are needed before the approach is scaled up.

Coronavirus: Could sniffer dogs soon be used to test people?

Scientists think specially trained dogs may be able to tell if someone has the virus based on their smell.

Sixty seconds on . . . covid-19 sniffer dogs

Not at all. Canine scent detectors have been working at Helsinki-Vantaa Airport since 22 September in a pilot study to see if they can speed up the detection of SARs-CoV-2 in the arrivals lounge. Possibly, although dog breed is less important than a love of sniffing, according to trainers from...

Multiple peer reviewed studies are needed before that can be confirmed. Anyways, if true, they are probably not detecting the virus itself, but some odor molecule produced by the human body when infected with the virus.
