A netizen shared a memorable experience of being singled out by a drug-sniffing dog at the airport, which led to an awkward moment for the dog handler. At airports, it is common to see these canine companions weaving through crowds, and the most dreaded moment for travelers is when a dog reacts to their luggage.
This particular netizen recounted how, while preparing to collect his luggage after a flight, a drug-sniffing dog suddenly approached and began sniffing vigorously. The dog's unusual behavior left even the handler puzzled. After a brief inquiry about what was packed in the suitcase, the handler requested to open it.
Upon opening the suitcase, they found books, clothes, and some snacks, including treats for the netizen's dog at home. As soon as the treats were revealed, the drug-sniffing dog started wagging its tail excitedly and gazed eagerly at the snacks. The handler quickly understood what had happened and awkwardly suggested, "You can go now; everything is fine." However, just a few steps away, the netizen overheard the handler scolding the dog: "Can you be a bit more professional? Do I usually deny you food? You want to eat this too?" The humorous exchange left him both amused and bewildered.
The netizen reflected on how surprising it was that even a drug-sniffing dog could be so greedy. Other internet users chimed in with laughter, commenting on how they would feel if they were in the dog's position: "He has something tasty in his bag!" "As a dog, why should I feel embarrassed?" "I'll come back after work!" Some even joked about not knowing there was a rule against working dogs eating while on duty.
However, some skeptics questioned the authenticity of this account, arguing that working dogs are trained to resist distractions and should not behave so unprofessionally.
