Dogs May Be Able to Sniff Out Those Who Need Help
Drug detection dogs on board cruise ships
Carnival Cruise Line is using drug-sniffing dogs at ports and aboard its ships. The dogs are owned by Carnival and not by law enforcement. Carnival said the dogs will be used to detect drugs, but not to search passengers or their belongings. Passengers who are found to be carrying drugs will be turned over to law enforcement.
Dogs may help people who are struggling with addiction
The use of drug-sniffing dogs on cruise ships is a controversial issue. Some people argue that the dogs are an invasion of privacy. Others argue that the dogs are a necessary tool to keep drugs off of ships. Carnival said the dogs will be used to help people who are struggling with addiction. The dogs will be able to detect drugs that are hidden in luggage or on people's bodies. This will help to prevent people from bringing drugs on board ships and getting into trouble.
