Dogs are used at many international airports to sniff out illegal imports. This is not a strange procedure.

Tell the person that if he/she spent more time reading and knowing things rather than roaming about cyber-gossiping, this embarrassing c.ockup will not make world headlines.

It's not 'madness'.

The dogs are part of a well-trained K-9 unit and are actually more efficient than humans in detecting narcotics because dogs' sense of smell is about 9 times greater than that of humans.

By the way, dogs are also used to sniff passenger luggage in most major US airports too.

Do we need to applaud them for meeting up to international standard?.

This is how it's meant to be, please.
Yes we do need to applaud them for that. Imagine what happened to me one time at Muritala Airport about 6 years ago.

I was returning to the US, dude at the airport was going through my entire luggage taking out everything and inspecting them. That was weird to me.

After he did all that, he ended up asking me if he could have my hairclippers. That's one of the items in my luggage. I probably had about 5 others at home then and told him he could have it and he did. That was a weird request though, but he took it anyways.

That was weird to me because the hairclippers were designed for the 110 volts the US uses, not the 220 volts in Nigeria. Plus, I can't understand why he needed someone else's hairclippers. That stuff only costs about $20. I can't use anyone else's clippers, not sure why he wanted it so badly. Even I had to use a portable step-down transformer i brought with me to use it in Nigeria. I bet he was just going to plug that stuff directly when he gets home, and it's just going to explode or melt. That was what he asked for and I gave it to him. Very weird request from a supposed immigration person at the Lagos International Airport.

Trained dogs do a better job than many folks working in Nigerian airports, dogs don't look for clippers, they look for drugs and other contraband they can smell since dogs can't talk.

Trained dogs can smell hard drugs from far away. We should be applauding our authorities. It's not every time you condemn cos if you go outside Nigeria and see this, you will come here and be praising such countries
most Nigerians are hypocrite believe me.. Isn't that development? You don see my mind already anyway.

Please teach the local peeps. With all the foreign movies and news they keep seeing yet their mentality is still backwards.

We don't have to applaud them for meeting up to the international standard. It's what happens in airports in saner climes, they should've started using this method long before now.

Just my thoughts tho.

Yes we need to applaud them. You can see a lot of comments condemning them. Those people obviously have not crossed the borders of Nigeria.

Where have you travelled before?. The will soon stop dogs and do the right things. Dogs can only dictate the smells they are trained with. Is not only drugs that are harmful. Drugs is one one of the millions illegal stuff investigated in borders. What about explosives and and related substance that are not scented?
