I suggest you avoid Heathrow if you are taking a copy of your personal Gospel collection to give to your mother. :p

There are drug-sniffing dogs, bomb-sniffing dogs, people-sniffing dogs, and now DVD-sniffing dogs.

An alliance of film industry groups that includes the Motion Picture Association of America and the Federation Against Copyright Theft has announced the world's first dogs specially trained to detect CDs and DVDs in bags and packages.

Nope, straight from ABC.com.

Couple things I found interesting were all the US companies behind it... yet the two dogs are working at the Heathrow UK airport. And that they have already been opening FedEx packages for awhile now, but not yet found any illegal bootlegs... :rolleyes:
