If cops are all liars, how do you know the complainants aren't?

Cops rarely report each other. That Thin Blue Line mindset.

How about teachers, doctors, lawyers stockbrokers, politicians and financiers? Just because you carry wood for cops doesn't make them any more guilty of protecting their own than other professions.

you have ignored that post that shows irrefutable abuse of the use of drug-sniffing dogs

Ignored? I posted directly from the link about the UCD report. Are you blinded by your pathological hatred or just oblivious?

Please point out where I said all cops are liars.

Ignored? I posted directly from the link about the UCD report.

And then you did your best to avoid discussion of the implications of the findings, preferring instead to blather about hunting dogs or harping on another poster's comment about all cops being liars.

No one is contesting a dog's keen sense of smell. What is being contested is first, using a dog without probable cause and second, that dogs can be conditioned, either intentionally or unintentionally, to react to handler queues to indicate a positive.

And, even more telling, you have refused to support the notion of limited government that the Founders instilled in the Constitution. You know why Republicans don't get traction any longer? Because too many of them, like you, don't give a rat's ass about limited government conservatism. And without such, Republicans are Dem light. Weak, watery beer with no appeal.

And BTW, I am not a knee-jerk cop-hater. However, when I read about dogs being conditioned to give false positives, that is pretty damning of the cops in question. But my real beef is with SCOTUS allowing dog searches without other probable cause which is, IMO, a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment.
