I was pulled over in West Baton Rouge in 2009, we were driving east in an empty rental box truck after helping a friend move back to Tx. It was 1am, we were pulled over on a BS pretense (weaving across lanes when we signaled a lane change because they had someone else pulled over, so we obeyed the law of pulling over a lane to give them room). I denied their request to search the truck, they had no reason. They called the drug dog, who after the third walk around, "signaled" drugs at the right front tire (after having thir leash jerked). They then "had cause" to search the truck. After finding two small suitcases with clothes (exactly what we told them they'd find), the main cop got really angry with me for "making a mockery of the south", threw the keys at me and told us to GTFO.

I'm 100% convinced drug dogs are trained to "signal" falsely at certain things like a leash tug. It's all BS.

I've had my bag sniffed at airports at least 50 times, and they've never stopped me. So there must be something else going on as well

Out of how many dogs? We’re these outliers or the regular thing?
