Y'know, I don't think they would scan a dog with the backscatter machine. I think if you are singled out for scanning, they will probably x-ray the crate and then you could put the dog back in the crate while you get scanned.

They may examine the dog by hand, though it would be kind of obvious that the dog is not carrying a bomb. The idea of the backscatter machine is to see under your clothes to see if you're hiding liquid explosives. The dog can't do that unless s/he's dressed. And the Chi is too small to hide enough plastic explosives up its butt.
