What drugs can dogs actually smell?

some sniffer dogs are useless though, when i was at titp on the way in my and my mates were all standing beside a sniffer dog and we had over 2 o's of weed and a whack of caine and the dog didnt even notice lol.

yeah i seen a chart somewhere and they tested 6 dogs and the highest success percentage was 50 ,, alot of substances were completely missed
 
Sadly I no longer have the reference for this, but I once read a very enlightening article on the website of the US Department of Homeland Security, boasting about their abilities to train dogs to sniff out MDMA. The article said that they selected the top methamphetamine trained dogs, and further trained them to smell MDMA, and that it was quite a difficult process - they had a grand total of around 150 dogs in the entire USA. Which would make it fairly unlikely for you to encounter one.

This reinforces what others have said - it is possible to train dogs to smell for anything, but some things maybe harder to train for than others, and there is a list of priorities, with weed, coke and heroin at the top, and ketamine and 2Cs etc way at the bottom, or off the list altogether.
 
I heard a story about a guy who was at the airport and was carrying a bit of weed on him. a sniffer dog handler came past and had 2 sniffer dogs. one sat down next to him but the handler was concentrating on the other one so before the handler noticed he gave the dog a quick backhander and it whimpered and walked away
 
I walked through a station the other day with a load of LSD soaked sugar cubes in my bag, I got kind of worried at first though I didn't think it would be possible for them to smell it considering it was distilled with some kind of alcohol and on sugar.. would be strange for police dogs to be looking for either alcohol or sugar. I was more worried about something being left over in my bag from a previous time that may have caught the dog's attention and my bag being searched.
 
I walked through the station the other day with 5 grams of coke, an oz of weed and a few grams of heroin and I saw a damn sniffer dog about 30 feet ahead. Luckily I also carry a cat with me on all drug runs, with bacon and steak segments strapped onto it. I let the cat out the bag so to speak, and flung it towards the dog, then made my escape. Full proof system ;)
 
I always find trailing a line of 6 or 7 sausages behind me works a treat for evading these dogs.

dogs can be trained to sniff lsd and would be able to pick out the smell of lsd from the separate alcohol and sugar smells. they're just generally not trained to smell it.

you mean dissolved in alcohol not distilled in alcohol right? dogs are great at picking out different smells from one another

yeah that'd be the one, sealed container from now on while traveling I think
 
methamphetamine (speed)
Methamphetamine isn't speed, methamphetamine is crystal meth.
A stimulant drug primarily manufactured in North America

for the record, in NA speed refers to meth, we dont get amps on the street generally, unless ur talkin addies or other scripts
 
dogs in the UK are deff not trained to sniff for 2C compounds.

had a dog sniff my crotch on numerous occasions while carrying.
 
also dogs cannot be trained to smell everything.

there is no dog in the world that can smell all explosives, all hard drugs and all soft drugs.
 
I think it's already been said, but I don't think any dog can be trained to smell explosives and drugs at the same time.
 
Some things:

The dogs are trained by giving them a toy with a small package inside containing the substance they are being trained to detect. They bond with this toy and hence the substance, and associate the substance with play. This toy is taken from them from time to time and hidden during training exercises. I guess that this means you only have dogs which specialise in one substance.

The dogs apparently only have a concentration span on the job of about half an hour before they become rather useless and have to be taken off duty. So I guess that a lot of the time the dogs you see might not even be sniffers and are there to catch people who visibly freak out at the sight of them, or in the case of tube stations go up the up escalator and down the down escalator into the arms of the plainclothes downstairs.
