"don't be shocked if they call for a dog. "
and i do not give you dog permission to search me or my possessions either. if the dog continues, attorney and supreme court will be the next destination. If the dog works for the police, then the dog works for the government. That means that he also has to have a warrant.

I think that a dog hitting on a bag after sniffing baggage has already been determined to be legal probable cause. Heck, I've had my truck sniffed at a border patrol stop (they sniffed all vehicles passing through) and no doubt have had my bag sniffed while in the luggage rack on Amtrak.

Before you flame in response, remember I don't write the laws.

That being said, courts don't consider a dog as a search. Law enforcement don't need a warrant to run a dog on your bag, or around your car.
