A Sniff Too Far
• Simple JusticeWhat limits, if any, does the
Fourth Amendment place on the use of a trained drug-sniffing dog to
approach the front door of a home? The police might do this to see if
the dog will alert for the presence of narcotics in the home, which
might then be used to help show probable cause and obtain a warrant to
search it.
