A man had just settled into his seat next to the
window on the plane when another man sat
down in the aisle seat and put his black
Labrador Retriever in the middle seat next to the man.
The first man looks very quizzically at the dog
and asks why the dog is allowed on the plane.
The second man explained that he is a DEA agent
and that the dog is a "sniffer dog". His name is
Sniffer and he's the best there is. I'll show you
once we get airborne, when I put him to work."
The plane takes off, and once it has levelled out,
the agent says: "Watch this." He tells Sniffer to
"search". Sniffer jumps down, walks along the aisle,
and finally sits very purposefully next to a woman
for several seconds. Sniffer then returns to its seat
and puts one paw on the agent's arm.
The agent says, "Good boy", and he turns to the
man and says: "That woman is in possession of
marijuana, so I'm making a note of her seat number
and the authorities will apprehend her when we land."
"Say, that's pretty neat" replies the first man.
Once again, the agent sends Sniffer to search the aisles.
The Lab sniffs about, sits down beside a man for a few
seconds, returns to its seat, and this time, he places
TWO paws on the agent's arm.
The agent says, "That man is carrying cocaine, so again,
I'm making a note of his seat number for the police."
"I like it!" says his seat mate.
The agent then told Sniffer to "search" again.
Sniffer walked up and down the aisles for a little while,
sat down for a moment, and then came racing back to
the agent, jumped into the middle seat and proceeded
to shit all over the place.
The first man is really grossed out by this behaviour
and can't figure out how or why a well-trained dog
would act like that, so he asks the agent "What's going on?"
The agent nervously replied, "He just found a bomb!"
