I know that dogs are really good at scent disctinction, but won't the fact that the G-8 protestors all smell like weed, old socks, and too much patchouli oil confuse them?

An eye? Seems more of a nose.

Quote:
The use of scent samples was widely known to be practiced in Germany by the East German secret police, the Stasi, who used the technique to track dissidents.

Petra Pau, a senior lawmaker with the opposition Left Party, a group that includes ex-communists, criticized the practice as "another step away from a democratic state of law toward a preventive security state."

"A state that adopts the methods of the East German Stasi, robs itself of every ... legitimacy," she said in a statement.
This statement would have more bite if we were certain the police dogs themselves were Communists or former Communists. Can't say as I've ever heard of a commie canine.

There is a british film from the 1960s, called "Morgan: A Suitable Case for Treatment."

I love this somewhat obscure movie. Not only does it have a professional wrestler, and gorillas, and David Warner in it, but there is a priceless scene in which Morgan (David Warner) is being taken to court for "defacing the dog." He shaved a hammer and sickle into the side of a French Poodle.

That's as close to a commie canine as I think you'll get.

Unless you dye a Russian Wolfhound red.

Seems as though it is available, and deeply discounted, too.

It's one of those super-quirky movies that you could only be made in the Sixties. Quirky enough, though, that you would likely have difficulty finding it as a rental, unless there is a British version of Netflix.
