"The dogs are trained to detect dollars, no other currency," said instructor Sue Hunsaker, "and they are trained to find bulk, quantities of more than 500 bills. We don't want them to bother regular travelers."

So is it now well-settled law that possessing currency is, without more, a crime, or even probable cause that a crime has been committed?
Kip,
I'm surprised at you. Don't you realize that anyone carrying over $100 must be a dealer? C'mon, everybody knows that.
Especially if the money is folded up in a way that---in the officer's experience---is typical of drug dealers.
I'm a bit behind here since I was off last week and happened to travel with cash. The country visited is suspicious of our new bills, so I went to my bank and asked for X amount of dollars in old worn bills, but not torn, and in many small denominations, for tipping, and since they are not likely to take a $100 bill, unless they have to!
I walked right by a dog in Miami. I guess he wasn't a "Cash Hound" or would that be a "Dollar Dog", or a "Dollar Coller"... or I have to stop!
