Then they tried to screen the dogs before boarding. That too failed when 100% of dogs were found to have sharp teeth and resisted having them removed. 17 screeners were hospitalised as a result of that experiment policy.

The next attempt at screening also failed. 100% of dog owners/handlers punched the screener in the face when the screener attempted to paralyse their dog so that it could be x-rayed.

An attempt at behavioural analysis by the special prevention of terrorism (spot) agents failed too. They couldn't decide whether snarling and slobbering were good signs or bad signs, although they did eventually agree that dogs humping their legs was a bad sign.

The latest idea is to travel the world to find the most aggressive dogs they can find. The spot agents will have these dogs. Any dogs or other animals brought by passengers that get past these canine defenders will be shot as they obviously have been trained for bad purposes. To help the agents shoot the bad dogs, the test will take place in a confined space or corridor which is conveniently located near each aircraft.
