A Twitter post by Kylie Cunningham @kyyylieeeee that reads “today at the airport one of the drug dogs set off a false alarm and officers rushed over to find out the dog had alerted them for a piece of pizza. the handler just patted his head and goes “it’s okay buddy i know pizza always confuses you” and gave him his treat anyways.”

    Given that it’s a drug dog, getting people pulled over and potentially locked up for no reason is indeed a negative. More so if this was in the US

      Well for one, I was joking… But that’s not really how drug dogs work. You wouldn’t be locked up for a false positive unless the cops literally plant something on you, and at that point I’m not sure if it even matters if a dog was involved or not.

      Saying “the dog barked at him” isn’t evidence, they’d still need to produce the actual drugs.

        Fair, that’s not likely to happen in most countries. Getting a deep search because a doggo took a liking to your lunch is still going to be annoying as hell though.
