[QUOTE="jmoney, post: 1815038, member: 24661"] I don't doubt those articles, and love the idea put forth by the lawyer that k9 searches should be logged. It would be a great diagnostic to find out what is going on. I should have elaborated, the dogs are usually pretty spot on, it is the handlers that I don't trust and typically ruin their dogs training. Many training schools for police do things a different way and set the level for detection way too low. The other problem that can come about is dogs hitting on large caches of items with a strong odor that are not illegal, I think one of the articles said a big batch of illegal cigarettes...that doesn't surprise me. 80% error rate is unacceptable. I would be willing to bet even new dogs average slightly higher than that once they have a general idea of whats going on. [/QUOTE]
