There’s probably little chance of a complaint being filed with the Consumer Protection Agency, but apparently those marijuana containers advertised on the web as being immune to pot-sniffing police dogs is another case of false advertising.
Within the past week, the Shawano Police Department’s K-9, Caryk, has successfully sniffed pot being stored in containers at two traffic stops in the city, according to the Police Department.
The most recent incident was Friday morning, when police stopped a suspicious vehicle shortly after midnight at Industrial Drive and County Road B.
Caryk sniffed out a black container holding 18 grams of marijuana and a pot pipe, worth about $125 combined.
According to K-9 handler Heidi Thaves, it was the second container in the past week used to hold drugs that Caryk found.
The ads claim the containers are air-tight and scent-proof so dogs don’t alert to them.
Apparently Caryk hadn’t read those ads.
