Just a couple of years ago, a canine was brought out to join the inspection of my vehicle, but my big dog protested, and they canceled the inspection.

She is not an "alpha" dog, but there was something about that shepherd that she didn't like!

Think that works unless there's a dog. Then busted. Just stay away from the dog.

Better yet... I hear plastic bags that are used for baking turkeys work. Local told me that.

If you really want to hide it, the pros put it in the prison wallet. If your good you can also store up to a nine inch shank or cuff key with it just in case!
Just rinse before smoking, but use the shank at full strength as it will cause a hell of an infection.

The Militar was using a Dog at the checkpoint going southbound before you get to Jesus Maria. They emptied an entire ABC bus and all its luggage. 20 minute wait. That was 2 weeks ago.

I suspect that would change if a drug dog flagged you.

Are they using dogs at any of the checkpoints? I know they have used them at the LAP airport, because I lived next to their handlers' headquarters for a while.

Never worried about home security in that place. :lol:

I got dog-sniffed the last time I crossed through Mexicali a couple years ago. I wasn't ballsy enough to outright ask them what the dogs were actually searching for.

What do you think? Guns?

I had thought pot, but if they are only going to slap you on the wrist and send you back home, it doesn't seem worth using dogs.
If the dogs are actually trained to sniff for anything, it's likely money. I have had them hit on me a few times in airports in Mexico and Central America, and they went straight for my wallet. The soldier handling the dog in El Salvador even commented that I must have money in my wallet. It's a lot of work to train a sniffer dog and the payoff is a lot higher catching currency smugglers.

I used to wrap my CBD joints in plastic and foil then empty a big bag of Peets coffee, bury my stash in the coffee and reseal the Peets coffee bag. Not that anyone ever looked but I think it may have avoided detection.
