Traveling, looking for advice.

13. Oh, I know, well. I had military working dogs on my installations.

But I don't think the ones working TSA on domestic routes are looking for weed or anything 'druggy.' You don't want to overwork them--their noses burn out. They wouldn't have them wandering around an outgoing domestic flight sniffing and snuffling just for fun.

Besides, if the dog found a small amount of pot, it would not be a "federal" issue. They'd have to get the local cops--way more trouble than it is worth. There's jurisdictional issues. And in a place where weed is legal, what local cop is going to effect an arrest?

If they're working an international terminal, ARRIVALS, particularly...yeah, sure, I'd call those canines drug dogs. They're looking for cocaine and heroin.


They're not working domestic flights, though, unless they get a tip that someone is moving a lot of product along a particular route and they want to nab that person on a trafficking charge.
