Police dog "sniff" passes Supreme Court smell test

• Reuters

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that "the sniff is up to snuff" in a Florida case on how police may use dogs to track down illegal drugs.

In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court gave law enforcement authorities greater authority to use dogs to uncover illegal drugs, upholding a police dog's search of a truck that uncovered methamphetamine ingredients inside.
