Indiana police have dogs that sniff specifically for cash at the US’s 2nd biggest FedEx hub, then they simply keep the money (eu.indystar.com)

(edit) Would someone please ship some counterfeit money through there and get it confiscated, so the police can then be investigated for spending counterfeit money?

I’ve never heard of cops being called dogs. Pigs, sure. Anyway, money confiscated in this way usually finances police station frills like high-end coffee machines.

Dogs is more accurate. Pigs are cleaner than dogs.

But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

You've clearly never chilled with a pig

Really? I thought pigs were 2-cycle animals (eat their own output on the first iteration, like rabbits), no? I mean, sure, some minority of dogs eat their excrement -- the same dogs that end up in the homes of Blue Collar Comedy comedians. Tough contest I guess. I had a dog that rolled in every rotten dead fish it encountered by the lake. Not sure why.. maybe it serves as a good cologne to attract the females.

(edit) dogs might have a better memory than cops.

pigs have much the same kind of diet as humans, so i don't know of any reason for them to eat their own poo.
Rabbits do this because they eat fibrous plant matter and it needs to go through twice to be processed sufficiently, they don't have multiple stomachs like other grazers do.

I meant the animals, but I guess that works too.

yeah, I was slow to realize that. Like a day slow.
