The dogs are specialists, not generalists. Drug dogs find drugs, bomb dogs find bombs, and that cute little beagle finds illicit fruit.
In a legal sense, if the air around the vehicle is regarded in the same way for the dog as the visual field of a human officer is, the guy transporting the weed might as well have had it sitting on the seat next to him with a large sign on it saying "WEED."
