The Paw Patrol

Boston police officer George Boggs and K-9 Peggy, a Labrador retriever trained by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, hunted the area, honing in on the parking lot. Peggy, trained to sniff out explosives, hit on the left front wheel of a Chevrolet Tahoe parked next to the suspects’ Lexus. Inside the truck’s wheel well, cops spotted the grip of the .380 pistol.
"The Paw Patrol." Awwww. And she's so cute!

That's much more appealing to the public than that dry, old, boring, irrelevant Fourth Amendment, don't you think? Part of BATFU's kinder, gentler community outreach image, and fuzzy paws are so much easier to sell than slimy tentacles.

How'd you like to be walking past Officer Boggs and Peggy after a day at the range? Bet that would lead to some interesting results if you didn't comply with an immediate cavity search.

Also it's "homing in on," not "honing in on." Idiot journalist.
