This was either the Wednesday afternoon or the very early part of Thursday. The cops were there to make an arrest of which we're all aware, but was a K-9 needed for that purpose?

I have a fading recollection of seeing a police dog at another National. I want to say the second-last one held in Baltimore. Again, an arrest was made on the floor at some point during that show, but I'm still not seeing the need for a dog.

I would much rather have K-9 units instead of metal detectors that make me feel like a terrorist for no reason and greatly slow entrance into the show.
