Rinse. Lather. Repeat.

Meanwhile, the dog doesn't alert to any drugs, aliens, or some other Threat To Security™ after wandering around my vehicle.
I am not sure if this was directed at me but I missed it either way. Taking for granted the officer doesn't see anything associated with the vehicle. You are cool as a cucumber (not nervous etc) you are free to go. The officer may still ask the question concerning your citizenship even if you offered it in the greeting without being asked.
